Hyperuricemia Increases the Risk of Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in International journal of endocrinology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Association between hyperuricemia (HUA) and atrial fibrillation (AF) remains unclear. We reviewed clinical evidence and aimed to determine whether hyperuricemia leads to a high risk of atrial fibrillation. Most studies were identified through databases online. Keywords used in literature search were hyperuricemia, atrial fibrillation, metabolic disorder, endocrine disorder, or uric acid. Three studies were provided by the authors. Literature search was performed without any data or language restriction. Observational studies, including cohort studies and cross-sectional studies, were used. Study type should be clearly defined. Cross-sectional studies should clearly introduce the sources of epidemiological data. Studies were excluded if with too many complications unrelated to AF enrolled. Data were independently extracted by three individuals. Data synthesis was conducted by R version 4.1.2. Prevalence of atrial fibrillation was the main outcome. Results of meta-analysis were presented as risk ratio (RR) for different prevalence of AF between individuals with and without HUA. All data included were obtained after follow-up work is completed. Data from 608,810 participants showed that patients with hyperuricemia were easier to suffer from atrial fibrillation (RR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.24-3.03). And the meta-regressions suggested growth of linear proportion between the ratio of current drinkers and hyperuricemia (QM = 41.0069,
