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

backgroundConstrictive pericarditis (CP) is an uncommon disease that limits both cardiac relaxation and contraction. Patients often present with right-sided heart failure as the pericardium thickens and impedes cardiac filling. Pericardiectomy is the treatment of choice for improving hemodynamics in CP patients; however, the procedure carries a high morbidity and mortality, and the anesthetic management can be challenging. Acute heart failure, bleeding and arrhythmias are all concerns postoperatively.

methodsAfter IRB approval, we performed the retrospective analysis of 66 consecutive patients with CP who underwent pericardiectomy from July 2018 to May 2022.

resultsMost patients had significant preoperative comorbidities, including congestive hepatopathy (75.76%), New York Heart Association Type III/IV heart failure (59.09%) and atrial fibrillation (51.52%). Despite this, 75.76% of patients were extubated within the first 24 h and all but 2 of the patients survived to discharge (96.97%).

conclusionsAnesthetic management, including a thorough understanding of the pathophysiology of CP, the use of advanced monitoring and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance, all played an important role in patient outcomes.
