Ventricular tachycardia observed during cesarean section in a patient without structural cardiac disease.
Article in JA clinical reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A 32-year-old gravida 2, para 1 woman without structural cardiac disease was scheduled for her second cesarean section under combined spinal and epidural anesthesia (CSEA). She had stable hemodynamics after delivery; however, 16 min after the application of uterotonics, ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a heart rate (HR) of 150 bpm appeared. VT lasted for <30 s, and her hemodynamics remained stable. Ventricular arrhythmia frequently appeared for 3 min, and the HR at sinus rhythm was approximately 90 bpm. After the discontinuation of oxytocin, VT did not reappear. A postoperative 12-lead electrocardiogram showed first-degree atrioventricular block, but echocardiography performed 2 days later did not reveal any structural abnormalities. Autonomic nervous imbalance induced by CSEA, ephedrine, and oxytocin, as well as ergometrine may cause intraoperative VT during cesarean section in patients without structural cardiac disease.
