[What is confirmed in the treatment of atrial fibrillation?]
Review in Innere Medizin (Heidelberg, Germany), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Atrial fibrillation is the most common clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmia. Important goals in the treatment of atrial fibrillation are improvement of the quality of life, relief of symptoms and the prevention of stroke. New in the current European guidelines on atrial fibrillation from 2020 is a structured approach with the introduction of the 4S-AF scheme (4S estimation of the risk of stroke, severity of symptoms, degree of severity of atrial fibrillation load and substrate, AF atrial fibrillation) for better characterization of atrial fibrillation and the ABC pathway in the treatment. The decision on the use of anticoagulation should be made after appropriate risk stratification. Depending on the characterization and symptoms of atrial fibrillation, the planning of further treatment should be made with respect to symptom control. Based on recent studies, rhythm-maintaining treatment by means of drugs or catheter ablation is gaining in importance over a strategy purely aimed at controlling the frequency. Integral components of treatment are also the identification and treatment of comorbidities and cardiovascular risk factors as well as the modification of an unhealthy lifestyle.
