Comorbidities and Antithrombotic Treatment Pattern in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation.

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
Objective: Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are proven alternatives to warfarin for preventing stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. We aimed to examine the treatment patterns and patient factors associated with the use of antiplatelet agents, warfarin, and NOACs in clinical practice. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Korean Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service database. Patients receiving antithrombotics were identified before and after the introduction of NOACs (from August 1, 2013 to December 30, 2014 and July 1, 2015 to November 30, 2016, respectively). Patients were included if they were aged ≥18 years, had an atrial fibrillation diagnosis, and had a CHA Results: We identified 129,465 and 196,243 patients before and after the introduction of NOACs, respectively. The proportion of antiplatelet users was 60.7 and 53.0% before and after the introduction of NOACs, respectively. The proportion of warfarin users was higher in patients with low HAS-BLED score, high CHA Conclusions: The treatment pattern of antithrombotics did not change with the introduction of NOACs. However, comorbidities served as an important factor in choosing treatment regardless of NOAC entry.
