Quivering hand and heart: Parkinson's disease is not associated with increased in-hospital mortality in atrial fibrillation hospitalizations: A nationwide analysis.

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
Background: Autonomic dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD) includes cardiovascular dysregulations which may manifest as an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, data on the impact of PD in AF patients is lacking. Our study aimed to investigate the differences in in-hospital mortality of patients admitted for AF with underlying PD versus those without PD. Methods: We examined the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2016 to 2019 for hospitalizations of AF as a principal diagnosis with and without PD as a secondary diagnosis. The primary outcome was inpatient mortality. The secondary endpoints were ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF), acute heart failure (AHF), cardiogenic shock (CS), cardiac arrest (CA), total hospital charge (THC), and length of stay (LOS). Results: Of 1,861,859 A F hospitalizations, 0.01% (19,490) had coexisting PD. Cohorts of PD vs No-PD had a mean age of 78.1 years [CI 77.9-78.4] vs 70.5 years [CI 70.4-70.5]; male (56.3% vs 50.7%), female (43.7% vs 49.3%). The PD category had similar in-hospital mortality with the no-PD category (OR Conclusion: Co-existing PD in patients admitted for AF was not associated with increased in-hospital mortality; however, there were lower odds of AHF and VT. The diminished arrhythmogenic neurohormonal axis may explain these cardiovascular benefits. Notwithstanding, to better understand the outcomes of AF in patients with PD, additional studies are required.
