Paraganglioma-induced pheochromocytoma crisis successfully treated by veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a case report.

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
Pheochromocytoma crisis is rare but potentially fatal if not recognized early and properly managed. Here, a woman in her 20s with a paraganglioma-induced pheochromocytoma crisis, who was successfully treated by veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) and interval tumor resection, is described. In July 2022, the patient was brought to hospital with a complaint of sudden-onset of palpitations with vomiting. The patient developed cardiorespiratory failure with hypoxia. Computed tomography scan showed pulmonary oedema and a mass anterior to the inferior vena cava. She was transferred to the intensive care unit and treated with VA-ECMO. The patient's ECMO was withdrawn after 6 days without any complications. After hemodynamic stabilization, the patient underwent tumor resection 4 months later. The postoperative course was uneventful and she was discharged on postoperative day 7. Histopathological analysis confirmed a paraganglioma. VA-ECMO may play a significant role in saving lives and providing time for accurate diagnosis and specific treatment of a patient with pheochromocytoma crisis. Appropriate individual management can help avoid the occurrence of ECMO complications.
