Anticoagulation Optimization Through a Specialized Center for Atrial Fibrillation.
Article in American journal of medical quality : the official journal of the American College of Medical Quality. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Atrial fibrillation is a prevalent condition, which is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke. Anticoagulation is widely used to mitigate stroke risk but remains underprescribed in certain circumstances. The authors evaluated the performance of a health record database query in identifying patients who may benefit from anticoagulation who did not have an active prescription for anticoagulation. Patient charts were reviewed by primary care providers and reasons for deferral of anticoagulation were provided. A subset of the patients identified were found to not have an appropriate reason for deferring anticoagulation. This initiative ultimately led to an increase in referrals to the center for specialty care of atrial fibrillation.
