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

Background: The guidelines recommend anticoagulation management with uninterrupted warfarin or direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) during the atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation periprocedural period. Objectives: To clarify the Japanese real-world latest periprocedural anticoagulation management during AF ablation. Methods: This multicenter observational study included 6232 consecutive AF patients (68.7 ± 10.9 years, 4346 men) who underwent periprocedural anticoagulation therapy using direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) between January 2022 and August 2023. Results: The mean CHADS Conclusions: Our multicenter real-world data demonstrated that anticoagulation with DTIs was a reasonable periprocedural anticoagulation regimen to reduce periprocedural complications.
