The Significance of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Transient Global Amnesia.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background and Purpose: The etiology of transient global amnesia (TGA) remains unclear in a large subset of patients. We aimed to determine the clinical and radiological characteristics of TGA-patients with suspected acute micro-embolic stroke on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Methods: TGA-patients that had new DWI hippocampal lesions (DWI+) were compared to DWI negative TGA-patients (DWI-). Demographics, risk factors, clinical data, radiological data, and mortality were analyzed. Results: Out of 83 patients diagnosed with TGA, 56 (65%) underwent MRI during the acute hospitalization and 26 (46%) had new hippocampal DWI lesions. DWI+ patients more often had a history of atrial fibrillation (AF, 26 vs. 7%, Conclusion: AF is common among DWI+ TGA-patients. The presence of AF in patients with TGA could suggest an increased risk of subsequent stroke.
