A Literature Review on the Anesthetic Management of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in Non-cardiothoracic Surgery.
Review in Cureus, 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
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is characterized by narrowing small pulmonary arteries, escalating pulmonary vascular resistance, and affecting the entire cardiovascular system. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) represents a subgroup of PH and typically affects one in 20,000 individuals. When treating individuals with PAH for non-cardiothoracic surgery, anesthetic management strategies should be tailored to the individual's specific needs. This literature review assessed the anesthetic management of PAH in non-cardiothoracic surgery. Electronic databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, Ovid Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Cochrane, and Google Scholar were searched using relevant keywords related to PAH, noncardiac surgery, and anesthesia. Reference lists and author names were also investigated. The articles that met the inclusion criteria provided evidence suggesting that preoperative assessment should be comprehensive, hemodynamic goals should be established, anesthesia providers should be familiar with the underlying pathology, and cross-consultations between surgeons and anesthesia providers are essential for achieving satisfactory outcomes. Furthermore, patient care should extend beyond the surgical procedure into postoperative recovery in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) or intensive care unit (ICU) setting. In conclusion, it is vital for anesthetic management strategies to accommodate the unique needs of PAH patients to optimize their safety during perioperative care.
