A systematic review and meta-analysis of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants vs vitamin K antagonists after transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with atrial fibrillation.

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
purposeTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly carried out in patients with aortic valvular conditions. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity among patients undergoing TAVR. Despite this, there remains a paucity of data and established guidelines regarding anticoagulation use post-TAVR in patients with AF.
methodsFour databases were searched from inception until 12 October 2021. A title and abstract sieve, full-text review and data extraction were conducted by independent authors, and articles including patients without AF were excluded. The Review Manager (Version 5.4) was utilised in data analysis.
resultsA total of 25,199 post-TAVR patients with AF were included from seven articles, with 9764 patients on non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOAC) and 15,435 patients on vitamin K antagonists (VKA). In this analysis, there was a significantly lower risk of all-cause mortality at 1 year (RR: 0.75, CI: 0.58-0.97, p = 0.04, I
conclusionWhile the results of this analysis reveal NOAC as a potential alternate treatment modality to VKA in post-TAVR patients with AF, further research is needed to determine the full safety and efficacy profile of NOAC (PROSPERO: CRD42021283548).
