Management and clinical outcomes of cardiogenic shock in King Abdulaziz University Hospital: A retrospective study.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo assess frequencies of various management approaches in cardiogenic shock (CS) and their clinical outcomes. Cardiogenic shock is a state of organ hypoperfusion and hypoxia caused by cardiac failure.
methodsIn this retrospective record review, we assessed the presentations, vital signs, laboratory readings, and treatments for 188 consecutive CS inpatients from 2010-2021. Patients were labeled as "ischemic CS" or "non-ischemic CS" based on the occurrence of myocardial infarction as the precipitating cause, and "post-operative CS" if they had undergone cardiac surgery. In-hospital mortality was the primary endpoint of the study.
resultsWe identified 118 (62.8%) ischemic, 64 (34%) non-ischemic, and 6 (3.2%) postoperative CS patients. The study population had a high mortality rate (85.1%). Logistic regression analysis revealed that dopamine (
conclusionVariations in outcomes occurred with different medications. Mortality was higher in patients receiving dopamine or epinephrine and lower in those receiving dobutamine or digoxin. Implementation of clinical trials for investigation of the mortality benefit observed with dobutamine can serve towards formulation of new guidelines for improvement of CS mortality rates.
