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

backgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in adults, associated with serious cardiovascular complications such as ischemic stroke, heart failure, and myocardial infarction. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is an established rhythm-control strategy for AF. Although the CHA

aimTo evaluate the association between the CHA

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Israeli Catheter Ablation Registry (ICAR), including 860 patients undergoing their first PVI for AF. Patients were grouped by CHA

resultsAF recurrence occurred in 32% of patients. Recurrence rates were 25.7%, 31.4%, and 51% across the low, intermediate, and high CHA
