Risk analysis of the association between EASIX and all-cause mortality in critical ill patients with atrial fibrillation: a retrospective study from MIMIC-IV database.

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
backgroundThe Endothelial Activation and Stress Index (EASIX) is a recognized marker of vascular endothelial health but has limited application in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). This study aimed to explore the association between EASIX and prognosis in critically ill patients with AF.
methodsThe patient's data were extracted from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV(MIMIC-IV) database. EASIX was calculated as lactate dehydrogenase (U/L) × creatinine (mg/dL)/platelets (10
resultsA total of 4896 patients with complete data were included. In-hospital, 28-day, and 365-day all-cause mortality rates were26.04%, 29.25%, and 49.75%, respectively. The median EASIX was 5.64 (4.56, 6.84). Higher EASIX was significantly associated with increased in-hospital, short-term, and long-term all-cause mortality after multivariable adjustment. Patients in quartiles Q2, Q3, and Q4 had significantly higher mortality than those in Q1, showing a clear trend. Kaplan-Meier analysis confirmed that patients with higher EASIX scores had significantly lower survival. The AUC showed that the performance of EASIX in predicting both short-term and long-term all-cause mortality was comparable to the SOFA and higher than the CHA₂DS₂-VASc score. Stratified analyses indicated that the association remained robust across subgroups, accounting for various underlying conditions and hospital interventions.
conclusionsEASIX is a reliable predictor of both short- and long-term mortality in critically ill patients with AF. Future prospective studies are necessary to confirm its broader applicability in other populations.
