1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe evaluation of the left atrial (LA) by imaging is becoming increasingly essential due to its significant role in numerous diseases. This study aimed to analyze and summarize research on LA imaging in the past 20 years through bibliometric analysis and offer insights into future research prospects.

methodsThe Web of Science (WOS) core collection database was retrieved for literature in LA imaging research from 2004 to 2023. Subsequently, the literature was processed and visualized by the VOSviewer and CiteSpace. VOSviewer was used to create cooperation networks for countries/regions and institutions. CiteSpace was used to analyze burst keywords in citation analysis.

resultsA total of 3664 articles published in this field between January 2004 and December 2023 were analyzed. The number of published articles is increasing year by year. The USA contributed the most articles (1072). Hugh Calkins (44) was the most productive author with the highest publications.

conclusionOver the past 20 years, research on LA imaging has grown rapidly. The results of the present study provide insights into the field’s status and indicate the research hotspots. In recent years, research on left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) and LA strain has been notably focused, which is expected to remain a prominent topic in future research.
