Cardiac Arrest During Spinal Surgery: A Multidisciplinary Approach and Management of Takotsubo Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 arrest (CA) in the operating room is rare. Among known perioperative CA causes, Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a well-recognized one. Perioperative TTS is more common than existing reported cases therefore anesthesiologists should be aware of its diagnosis and management. TTS is an acquired and self-limited stress cardiomyopathy usually triggered by a precipitating stress factor and should be considered in any hospitalized patient presenting with symptoms such as acute coronary syndrome, cardiac arrhythmias or CA. A 67-year-old woman presented for lumbar discectomy in knee-chest position suffered CA two hours after the beginning of surgery. After a thorough examination, TTS was determined as the cause. This case report highlights the importance of TTS as a differential diagnosis of CA in the intraoperative setting as well as the usefulness of multimodal monitoring with cerebral monitoring to assist the prompt pulseless electric activity diagnosis. To our knowledge, this is the first case report in such circumstances.
