Optimizing cardiac monitoring strategies: patient characteristics associated with different methods of atrial fibrillation detection after stroke.

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
Introduction: A variety of cardiac monitoring strategies are currently available, including patch-type monitoring devices and implantable loop recorders (ILR). Identifying patient characteristics associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) detection through different monitoring methods may help inform cardiac monitoring strategies in embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Methods: Patients with ESUS who were subsequently diagnosed with AF through continuous stroke-unit electrocardiography monitoring (CEM), Holter monitoring, or ILR were included in the study. Patients were categorized into two groups: short-term monitoring (CEM and Holter monitoring) and long-term monitoring (ILR). Factors associated with the detection of AF through short-term monitoring were investigated. Results: Among 182 patients with ESUS who were newly diagnosed with AF, AF was detected through CEM ( Discussion: Patients with ESUS who have large LAD or elevated WBC counts were more likely to have AF detected during short-term monitoring compared to ILR. Patch-type monitoring devices may be an alternative for these patients prior to the use of ILR.
