Pericardial Decompression Syndrome: A Case Series and Literature Review.
Article in CJC open, 2022. 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
Cardiac tamponade is a medical emergency requiring prompt recognition and intervention to avoid potentially fatal consequences. We present a case series of ventricular dysfunction and cardiogenic shock following pericardiocentesis in 3 patients with pericardial effusions at The Ottawa Hospital between 2014 and 2020. This report highlights the need for monitoring post-pericardiocentesis and raises awareness of this phenomenon, particularly in patients with malignancy. We propose a novel pressure-monitoring protocol to guide drainage and prevent development of pericardial decompression syndrome. The novel teaching points include limiting drainage to prevent development of pericardial decompression syndrome and a protocol for intra-pericardial pressure monitoring.
