Computed tomography measurement for left atrial appendage closure.
Review in Cardiovascular intervention and therapeutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has been reported many therapeutic effects with regard to its safety and efficacy, and the number of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation undergoing LAAC is increasing worldwide. Although it is a highly safe procedure, further improvements are expected and preoperative planning is extremely important. For this purpose, transesophageal echocardiography has been mainly performed so far, however, nowadays, it is recommended to determine a more optimal treatment strategy combined with computed tomography. Preoperative CT predicts not only the risk of the intervention based on anatomical features of the left atrial appendage (LAA) but also the device type and size, sheath type, optimal location for septal puncture and pre-procedurally clarifies the left atrium and LAA dimensions. Furthermore, postoperative CT can evaluate device-related thrombus and peri-device leak, making it possible to observe the postoperative course using less invasive methods. This study reviews the practical utility of CT in pre- and post-LAAC.
