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

objectivesWe assessed the CHA

methodsThis retrospective cohort study included patients with index admission for AF to Latakia's tertiary center (May 2021-November 2023). Patients were followed 90 days to assess readmission. CHA

resultsIn total, 717 patients were included; 320 (45%) were readmitted to the hospital within 90 days (58% men, 65% aged <65 years). Inpatient mortality was 4%; the median LOS was 2 days. There was an increase in the incident rate ratio (IRR) of LOS starting from a CHA
