Gastrointestinal bleed mortality disparities in patients with atrial fibrillation: A cross-sectional analysis 1999-2020.
Article in Journal of arrhythmia, 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
Introduction: Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is often encountered among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) due to the use of anticoagulation. This study assesses disparities in GIB-related mortality among decedents with AF in the United States. Methods: GIB mortality data in patients with AF from 1999 to 2020 was queried from the CDC database. Decedent demographic information (age, sex, race and ethnicity, and geographic residence) was obtained from death certificates. We calculated age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) through the direct method and estimated the annual percentage change (APC) in mortality using log-linear regression models. Results: From 11,209 GIB-related deaths among AF decedents, we observed an increase in AAMR from 0.12 in 1999 to 0.21 in 2020, particularly during the 2009 to 2020 period (APC +4.8, Conclusions: Disparities in GIB mortality among AF decedents were identified. These findings accentuate the need for targeted interventions to mitigate GIB risks in vulnerable subgroups.
