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 cardiac arrhythmia in adults, both in general and perioperatively and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The age of the patients is a major risk factor. The prevalence of AF in noncardiac surgery (NCS) varies widely from 0.4% to 30% and for cardiac surgery, especially major combined procedures, up to approximately 50%. Ectopic excitation centers and reentry mechanisms at the atrial level are favored as the main process of uncoordinated electrical atrial activity. The loss of atrial contraction can lead to a reduction in cardiac output of up to 20-25%. The increased risk of thromboembolism due to AF extends beyond the perioperative period. Medication-based prevention strategies have not yet gained widespread acceptance. Treatment strategies include frequency and rhythm control as well as the avoidance of thromboembolisms through anticoagulation.
