Vasoplegic syndrome in patients undergoing heart transplantation.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2023. 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
Objectives: To summarize the risk factors, onset time, and treatment of vasoplegic syndrome in patients undergoing heart transplantation. Methods: The PubMed, OVID, CNKI, VIP, and WANFANG databases were searched using the terms "vasoplegic syndrome," "vasoplegia," "vasodilatory shock," and "heart transplant*," to identify eligible studies. Data on patient characteristics, vasoplegic syndrome manifestation, perioperative management, and clinical outcomes were extracted and analyzed. Results: Nine studies enrolling 12 patients (aged from 7 to 69 years) were included. Nine (75%) patients had nonischemic cardiomyopathy, and three (25%) patients had ischemic cardiomyopathy. The onset time of vasoplegic syndrome varied from intraoperatively to 2 weeks postoperatively. Nine (75%) patients developed various complications. All patients were insensitive to vasoactive agents. Conclusions: Vasoplegic syndrome can occur at any time during the perioperative period of heart tranplantation, especially after the discontinuation of bypass. Methylene blue, angiotensin II, ascorbic acid, and hydroxocobalamin have been used to treat refractory vasoplegic syndrome.
