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

backgroundNegative pressure pulmonary edema (NPPE) is a rare complication that is more prevalent in young patients. NPPE usually results from acute upper airway obstruction, which is most commonly caused by laryngospasm during extubation. NPPE is characterized by the sudden onset of coughing, hemoptysis, tachycardia, tachypnea, and hypoxia, and is dramatically improved with supportive care, which prevents severe sequelae. To our knowledge, there is no report of a patient developing NPPE after percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar lumbar discectomy. CASE PRESENTATION: Herein, we report the case of a 22-year-old amateur basketball player with L5/S1 disc herniation who developed NPPE during extubation after general anesthesia for a minimally invasive spinal surgery (percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar lumbar discectomy). The NPPE was treated by maintaining the airway patency, applying positive-pressure ventilation, administering dexamethasone and antibiotics, and limiting the volume of fluid infused. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course, and was discharged to his home on postoperative day 3.

conclusionsAlthough NPPE is an infrequent complication, especially in patients undergoing percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar lumbar discectomy, this case report highlights the importance of early diagnosis and prompt treatment of NPPE to prevent the development of potentially fatal complications.
