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

Postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) is a known complication of postoperative morbidity and mortality in cardiac surgery. The purpose of this retrospective study was to look into the association between the incidence of new-onset AF in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and preoperative systemic inflammatory markers. Patients were divided into two groups (Group A: new-onset AF, Group B: no AF) depending on the occurrence of AF in the postoperative period, and a retrospective analysis was performed to look for the association between the incidence of new-onset AF and levels of systemic inflammatory markers. Five hundred patients were enrolled in the study, and the duration was three years. One-hundred and fifty out of 500 patients who underwent cardiac surgeries between 2020 and 2023 had higher levels of preoperative inflammatory markers. The systemic immune inflammation index (SII), neutrophil scores, platelet counts, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were examined. Compared to patients without AF (Group B), those who developed AF (Group A) had significantly higher mean levels of CRP (6.2 ± 1.8 mg/L), platelet count (320 ± 50 x10
