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

Objectives: To analyze the clinical profile, adequacy of treatment with rivaroxaban and outcomes in octogenarians with atrial fibrillation (AF), taking rivaroxaban in clinical practice. Methods: Observational and non-interventional study that included AF adults recruited from 79 Spanish centers, anticoagulated with rivaroxaban ≥ 6 months before being included. Data were analyzed according to age (≥ 80 Results: Out of 1433 patients, 453 (31.6%) were octogenarians at baseline. Compared to younger patients, octogenarians had more comorbidities, higher CHA Conclusions: In clinical practice, around one third of patients taking rivaroxaban are octogenarians. These patients have many comorbidities and a high thromboembolic risk. Despite that, rates of adverse events remain low. Rivaroxaban is adequately prescribed in the majority of octogenarians.
