The association between whole blood viscosity and CHA2DS2-VASc/CHA2DS2-VA scores in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Article in Future science OA, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionCHA2DS2-VASc and CHA2DS2-VA scores are often used to demonstrate thromboembolic risk in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. Elevated whole blood viscosity is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke.
objectiveThis study aimed to ascertain the correlation between whole blood viscosity and CHA2DS2-VASc/CHA2DS2-VA scores.
methodsThis study was performed retrospectively in a tertiary cardiac facility, encompassing 150 patients.
resultsThe study's results demonstrate that whole blood viscosity, concerning both high shear rate and low shear rate variables, are statistically significant in forecasting the likelihood of elevated CHA2DS2-VA and CHA2DS2-VASc scores.
conclusionWhole blood viscosity had a substantial correlation with the CHA2DS2-VASc/CHA2DS2-VA scores in patients with atrial fibrillation and may be used to evaluate thromboembolism risk, akin to these scores.
