Sleep Disruption and Atrial Fibrillation: Evidence, Mechanisms and Clinical Implications.
Review in Circulation research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia, with its incidence rising due to aging populations, obesity, and advancements in diagnostic modalities. The interplay between sleep disorders and AF is increasingly recognized, with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) serving as a well-established risk factor. However, emerging evidence implicates additional sleep disturbances-including central sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless legs syndrome-in AF pathogenesis and progression. Despite compelling observational data, interventional studies evaluating the impact of sleep disorder treatment on AF outcomes have yielded mixed results. Although continuous positive airway pressure therapy in patients with OSA mitigates AF recurrence, randomized controlled trials have yet to confirm a definitive causal benefit. This review synthesizes epidemiological, mechanistic, and interventional data linking sleep disorders to AF.
