Atrial High-Rate Episodes in Elderly Patients: The Anticoagulation Therapy Dilemma.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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) has been associated with higher morbidity and mortality rates, especially in older patients. Subclinical atrial fibrillation (SCAF) is defined as the presence of atrial high-rate episodes (AHREs) > 190 bpm for 10 consecutive beats > 6 min and <24 h, as detected by cardiac implanted electronic devices (CIEDs). The selection of eligible patients for anticoagulation therapy among elderly individuals with AHREs detected through CIEDs remains a contentious issue. The meta-analysis of ARTESiA and NOAH-AFNET 6 clinical trials revealed that taking Edoxaban or Apixaban as oral anticoagulation therapy can reduce the risk of stroke by approximately 32% while increasing the risk of major bleeding by approximately 62%. However, it is still unclear which are, among patients with SCAF, those who can take the highest net clinical benefit from anticoagulant therapy. The present review summarizes the current evidence on this intriguing issue and suggests strategies to try to better stratify the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with AHREs. We propose incorporating some parameters including chronic kidney disease (CKD), obesity, enlarged left atrial volume, the efficacy in blood pressure management, and frailty into the traditional CHA
