Percutaneous left atrial appendage closure: beyond the classic indications.
Review in AsiaIntervention, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has proven to be an effective alternative to oral anticoagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). International guidelines traditionally recommend LAAC for NVAF patients at high thromboembolic risk and contraindication to or at high risk for OAC. However, there are many other clinical situations in which this procedure may also be beneficial. This paper discusses the potential role of LAAC in specific haemorrhagic diseases (cerebral amyloid angiopathy, age-related macular degeneration, hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia, and Moyamoya disease), after left atrial appendage (LAA) electrical isolation, in cases of persistent thrombus inside the LAA, in end-stage renal disease and in special groups of patients for whom low compliance and persistence to OAC may be anticipated.
