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

Objectives: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common clinical arrhythmia. Failure to identify AF leaves patients at a considerably higher risk of disability and death, making its early screening and prevention extremely important. This study aimed to investigate knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) towards AF prevention and screening among the high-risk population. Methods: Individuals at a high risk of AF were required to fill out questionnaires between August 2022 and October 2022. Results: A total of 863 participants aged 66.54 ± 11.00 years were enrolled. The median scores of knowledge, attitude, and practice were 9 (81.8% of maximum), 37 (64.9% of maximum), and 21.56 (86.2% of maximum), respectively. Only knowledge (OR = 1.159, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.045-1.286, Conclusions: Participats from high-risk AF population in this study demonstrated acceptable practice towards AF screening, mostly moderated by knowledge and attitude. Some gaps in knowledge could be improved by targeted health education, especially important in vulnerable subpopulations.
