Use of Direct-Acting Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Significant Tricuspid Regurgitation.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThere are limited data on the efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with atrial fibrillation with significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR), which can lead to hepatic dysfunction and intestinal malabsorption. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of DOACs and warfarin for patients with atrial fibrillation with significant (moderate to severe) TR. METHODS AND
resultsA total of 1215 patients with significant TR and atrial fibrillation who were treated with warfarin (N=491) or DOACs (N=724) were retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcomes were ischemic stroke, systemic embolic events, and hospitalization for major bleeding. The secondary outcomes were intracranial hemorrhage, hospitalization for gastrointestinal bleeding, all-cause mortality, and a composite outcome. The median follow-up duration was 2.4 years. In the inverse probability treatment weighting-adjusted cohort, DOACs and warfarin had a similar risk for ischemic stroke and systemic embolic events (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.95 [95% CI, 0.67-1.36];
conclusionsIn this study, relative to warfarin, DOACs demonstrated comparable efficacy for ischemic stroke and systemic embolic events and major bleeding, with a lower intracranial hemorrhage risk in patients with significant TR and atrial fibrillation, indicating their effectiveness and safety.
