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

backgroundPheochromocytoma in association with pregnancy is a very rare, without specific symptoms. Concurrent pheochromocytoma in pregnant women can lead to severe complications and death due to associated catecholamine excess. CASE PRESENTATION: A 37-year-old pregnant woman, without medical or surgical history, gravida 1 para 0, was diagnosed with pheochromocytoma through biochemical and imaging tests at 20 weeks of gestation. Perioperative management included a multidisciplinary approach, symptom stabilization with medical treatment. An open right adrenalectomy was than performed at 23 weeks of gestation. DISCUSSION: Pheochromocytoma is a rare but important cause of hypertension in pregnancy. It should be included and investigated as a differential diagnosis in cases of labile hypertension in pregnant women with or without associated symptoms.

conclusionA correct diagnosis in all pregnant women with severe hypertension and a multidisciplinary management are mandatory to obtain optimal results and avoid deleterious effects at delivery.
