Factors predicting the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation: A review.
Review in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 and clinically significant type of cardiac arrhythmia. Although catheter ablation (CA) can restore sinus rhythm in patients with AF, some patients experience recurrence after the procedure. This requires us to find a simple and effective way to identify patients at a high risk of recurrence and to intervene early in the high-risk population to improve patient prognosis. The mechanism of AF recurrence is unclear, but it involves several aspects including patient history, inflammation, myocardial fibrosis, and genes. This article summarizes the current predictors of AF recurrence after CA, including myocardial fibrosis markers, inflammatory markers, MicroRNAs, Circular RNAs, AF recurrence scores, and imaging indicators. Each predictor has its own scope of application, and the predictive capacity and joint application of multiple predictors may improve the predictive power. In addition, we summarize the mechanisms involved in AF recurrence. We hope that this review will assist researchers understand the current predictors of AF recurrence and help them conduct further related studies.
