Incidence and Prevalence of Atrial Fibrillation in Latinos: What's New Since the Study in Latinos (SOL)?
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purpose of reviewTo assess contemporary epidemiological trends in AF incidence and prevalence in the LatinX population after the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos. RECENT
findingsAtrial fibrillation (AF) remains the most abnormal heart rhythm condition globally and disproportionately impacts morbidity and mortality of communities that have been historically disadvantaged. The incidence and prevalence of AF is lower in the LatinX population compared to White individuals despite a higher burden of classic risk factors associated with AF. Since the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos study on AF, recent data continues to demonstrate a similar lower burden of AF in the LatinX population compared to White individuals. However, the rates of incident AF may be accelerating faster in the LatinX population compared to their White counterparts. Furthermore, studies have found environmental and genetic risk factors that are associated with the development of AF within LatinX individuals, which may help explain the rising development of AF among the LatinX community. Recent research continues to show that LatinX populations are less likely to be treated with stroke reduction and rhythm control strategies and have a disproportionately higher burden of poor outcomes associated with AF compared to White patients. Our review illuminates that further inclusion of LatinX individuals in AF randomized control trials and observational studies is imperative to understand the incidence and prevalence of AF in the LatinX community and improve overall morbidity and mortality.
