Antithrombotic Therapy in the Elderly with Cardiovascular Disease: Walking the Tightrope Between Efficacy and Bleeding Risk-A Narrative Review.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The number of elderly patients requiring antithrombotic therapy (for example, those with atrial fibrillation, ischemic heart disease, peripheral arterial disease, or venous thrombo-embolism) is increasing worldwide due to population aging. These patients are often frail and therefore at increased risk of both thromboembolic events and bleeding complications during antithrombotic treatment. Therapeutic decision-making is further complicated by the underrepresentation of older adults in large randomized trials and the resulting scarcity of age-specific, evidence-based data. As a result, their management is not guided by specific recommendations but rather relies on clinician evaluation in an individualized, patient-by-patient approach. The aim of this narrative review is to discuss the current optimal therapeutic strategies for the management of elderly patients in different clinical conditions requiring antithrombotic therapy. We analyze the efficacy and safety of the different anti-thrombotic drugs and guidelines indications by discussing the clinical data available from randomized as well as observational studies. At the same time, we focus into the future of antithrombotic therapy presenting new drugs and new strategies for the management of elderly patients requiring antithrombotic therapy.
