1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

aimsThe association between body mass index (BMI) and clinical outcomes of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) taking oral anticoagulants (OACs) are controversial, and we thus analyzed the large registry data to elucidate them. METHODS AND

resultsWe conducted a historical cohort study at 71 centers in Japan and included outpatients with NVAF taking vitamin K antagonists (VKAs). Physicians in charge could change VKAs to direct OACs based on their judgement during follow-up period. We categorized patients into four BMI groups (kg/m

conclusionAmong NVAF patients taking OACs, underweight patients had higher risks of all-cause death and ischemic events than other patients. Overweight patients had lower risk of all-cause death.
