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

objectiveTo systematically evaluate the level of serum uric acid in patients with postoperative recurrence of atrial fibrillation, and explore the evidence-based medical basis for serum uric acid and postoperative recurrence.

methodsThe literature on serum uric acid levels in patients with postoperative recurrence of atrial fibrillation was collected using keywords in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, World Wide Web, Chinese Biomedical Literature and other publicly published databases. The literature was collaboratively screened by one scholar based on pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Then, we extracted the data in the literature, evaluated the quality of the literature and used RevMan software for statistical analysis.

resultsThis meta-analysis included 14 research papers, involving 2046 clinical patients, and analyzed serum uric acid levels in the postoperative recurrence group and non-recurrence group. Combining the analysis of the serum uric acid levels in the patients in each study, we found that the serum uric acid levels of the patients in the recurrence group (WMD = 40.79 [27.62, 53.95], P<0.001) were significantly higher than those of the non-recurrence group. Also, the recurrence rate of patients in the high uric acid group (OR = 2.21 [1.73, 2.83], P<0.001) was significantly higher than that of the low uric acid group.

conclusionThe level of serum uric acid is closely related to the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation, and patients with high serum uric acid level have a higher risk of postoperative recurrence.
