Anticoagulants versus Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Co-Morbid Thrombocytopenia.

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
Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is an alternative approach to anticoagulants. Nonetheless, data regarding the outcomes of LAAC procedures in patients with thrombocytopenia remain lacking. The primary objective was to determine the incidence of the composite endpoint comprising ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, major bleeding, and cardiac cause of death among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and thrombocytopenia who were either undergoing LAAC or receiving oral anticoagulants. The secondary endpoint was the determination of total mortality. Data from a prospective, single-center registry of patients undergoing LAAC procedures were analyzed. A subset of 50 consecutive patients with thrombocytopenia were selected. Thrombocytopenia was defined as a thrombocyte count below 150,000. Subsequently, from patients hospitalized with AF receiving oral anticoagulants, 50 patients were further chosen based on propensity score matching, ensuring comparability with the study group. The primary endpoint occurred in 2% of patients in the LAAC group and 10% of patients in the non-LAAC group (
