The Liver-Heart Connection: A Literature Review of Liver Disease as a Risk Factor for Atrial Fibrillation.
Review in Cureus, 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 (AFib) is a common type of cardiac arrhythmia, characterized by disorganized atrial electrical activity with features of irregularly irregular heart rhythm and often with rapid ventricular response increasing the risk of stroke and heart failure due to tachyarrhythmia. The pathophysiology mechanism of AFib is either triggered by atrial distension, abnormality in conducting system, catecholamine excess, or increased atrial irritation or automaticity. Risk factors include uncontrolled diabetes, obesity, obstructive sleep apnea, hypothyroidism, and certain stimulants. Based on recent research, liver disease has recently been identified as a risk factor for AFib. Considering the progression of chronic liver disease, this literature review aims to investigate and summarize the relationship between liver disease and AFib and explore clinical interventions that can be utilized to prevent AFib aggravation.
