New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation Potentially Associated With Tirzepatide: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Tirzepatide, a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, is increasingly prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Although it is generally considered cardiometabolically beneficial, rare cardiac rhythm disturbances may occur. We describe a 62-year-old woman without a prior history of cardiovascular disease who developed new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) shortly after initiating tirzepatide. She presented with palpitations, hypotension, and rapid ventricular response requiring intensive care, rate control, anticoagulation, and electrical cardioversion. A thorough examination showed that there was no structural heart disease, electrolyte imbalance, or endocrine disorder. Following discontinuation of tirzepatide, AF did not recur during follow-up. This case highlights the importance of clinical vigilance for arrhythmias when initiating novel incretin-based therapies.
