Atrial Fibrillation Related Coronary Embolism: Diagnosis in the Focus.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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 (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in myocardial infarction (MI). AF can be caused by ischemia, and MI can be caused by AF. Additionally, 4-5% of MI cases are related to coronary embolism (CE), and one-third of cases are attributed to AF. Our aim was to investigate the prevalence of AF-related CE cases among 3 consecutive years of STEMI cases. We also aimed to reveal the diagnostic accuracy of the Shibata criteria scoring system and the role of thrombus aspiration. Among 1181 STEMI patients, 157 had AF (13.2%). By using the Shibata's diagnostic criteria, 10 cases were classified as 'definitive' and 31 as 'probable' CE. After re-evaluation, a further five cases were classified as 'definitive'. Further analysis of the 15 CE cases revealed that CE was more prevalent in patients with previously known (n = 10) compared to those with new-onset (n = 5) AF (16.7% vs. 5.1%,
