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

backgroundThe impact of psychosocial risk factors (PSRFs) on outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) device implantation is unclear. We aimed to analyze the association of psychosocial risk factors with outcomes in patients undergoing LAAO.

methodsData were extracted from the Nationwide readmissions database for the calendar years 2016-2019. LAAO device implantations were identified using ICD-10-CM code 02L73DK. The outcomes of interest included procedural complications, inpatient mortality, resource utilization, and 30-day readmissions. Patients were divided into two cohorts based on the absence or presence of PSRFs.

resultsOur cohort included a total of 54,900 patients, of which, 19,984 (36.4%) had ≥ 1 PSRF as compared to 34,916 (63.6%) with no PSRFs. The prevalence of major complications (3.3% vs 2.8%, p=0.03) was significantly higher in patients with ≥ 1 PSRF as compared to no PSRFs. Furthermore, patients with ≥ 1 PSRF had a significantly higher 30-day readmission rate (6.9% vs 6.2%, p=0.02). In the multivariable model, the presence of ≥ 1 PSRF was associated with significantly higher odds of overall complications [adjusted odds ratio (aOR):1.11; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.21; p=0.02]. Additionally, the presence of ≥ 1 PSRF was associated with higher odds of prolonged hospital stay for more than one day (aOR: 1.30; 95% CI: 1.21-1.40; p<0.01).

conclusionThe high prevalence of PSRFs may be associated with poorer outcomes in patients with AF patients undergoing LAAO device implantations. These data merit further study to help in the selection process of patients for LAAO for improved outcomes.
