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

purposeNeurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) combined with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a rare condition associated with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Although several mechanisms have been proposed, the pathophysiology and management strategies are not yet fully established. We aimed to determine the radiological and clinical outcomes of patients with NPE and with TCM after aSAH to propose management strategies.

methodsWe analyzed the data of 564 patients with aSAH recorded at a single medical center from February 2015 to July 2022. This study retrospectively investigated the incidence and demographics of SAH combined with both NPE and TCM and the clinical outcomes of the patients. Correlating factors, independently associated with NPE-TCM, were also investigated.

resultsDuring the 7 years, 11 (2.0%) of 564 patients had NPE complicated with TCM after aSAH. Seven of 11 (63.6%) patients had poor-grade SAH (Hunt-Hess Grade 4 to 5). Three of 11 patients had a posterior circulation in the NPE-TCM group. The most prevalent treatment option was endovascular coil embolization, except for one case of clip. Long-term outcomes were favorable in 6 of 11 patients, and there was one case of mortality. Age, troponin I level, and alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient were correlating factors of NPE-TCM.

conclusionAlthough NPE-TCM represents a rare complication associated with aSAH, achieving active resolution of underlying neurological causes through early and appropriate treatment may contribute to a favorable prognosis. Considering the limited incidence of SAH complicated with NPE-TCM, a multi-center study may be needed.
