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

backgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia that is associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). The main goal was to analyze the links and associations between AF and MACE.

methodsA multicenter, observational, retrospective, community-based study of a cohort (

results2574 people (6.39%) developed a first AF event, resulting in an overall incidence of 8.9/1000 people-years [CI95% 8.6-9.2]. The incidence of MACE among those with AF was 75.1/1000 people-years [CI95% 70.8-79.5], whereas among those without AF, it was 20.6/1000 people-years [CI 95% 20.2-21.1], resulting in a rate ratio of 3.65 [CI 95% 3.43-3.88,

conclusionsAF diagnosis increases the incidence of heart failure fourfold. Additional information is required to establish the connection between AF, major adverse cardiovascular events, and nutritional status.
