Incidence, clinical predictors, and clinical effect of new-onset atrial fibrillation in myocardial infarction patients: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 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
objectivesTo calculate the incidence of new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) in myocardial infarction (MI) patients and examine associated predictors and clinical outcomes of NOAF patients.
methodsA retrospective cohort study was used to carry out this study. All MI patients admitted to King Khaled University Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between January 2015 to 2020 were eligible for inclusion. The study excluded those with a previous diagnosis of atrial fibrillation and patients who died at presentation.
resultsA total of 281 patients were analyzed with a mean age of 58.7±12.7. Incidence of NOAF was 7.8%. Significant predictors identified by multivariate logistic regression analysis included older age (
conclusionNew-onset atrial fibrillation is a relatively common complication of MI, and in our study, it was associated with higher odds of further complications including death. Therefore, identification of MI patients at risk of developing NOAF is crucial. Our study suggests that older age, a previous history of MI, and undergoing CABG are significant predictors of NOAF development.
