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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia, with high recurrence rates following radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA). Identifying predictors of atrial tachyarrhythmia (Ata) recurrence is crucial for risk stratification and personalized management. The HARMS

methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 152 patients who underwent RFCA at Kunshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2021 and December 2022. Ata recurrence was defined as documented episodes of atrial flutter, atrial tachycardia, or AF lasting more than 30 s on ECG or 24-hour Holter monitorin during follow-up. Based on Ata recurrence, patients were classified into recurrence (n = 44) and non-recurrence (n = 108) groups. Clinical characteristics, CHA

resultsPatients in the recurrence group exhibited a higher prevalence of persistent AF (P = 0.002), larger LAD (P < 0.001), and higher CHA
