Anaphylaxis to Protamine During a Carotid Endarterectomy.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Protamine sulfate is commonly used to reverse the anticoagulant effects of unfractionated heparin (UFH) during surgical procedures, but its administration can sometimes trigger severe adverse reactions, including life-threatening anaphylaxis. We present the case of a 77-year-old male undergoing carotid endarterectomy who developed profound hypotension and tachycardia following protamine infusion. Anaphylaxis was confirmed by elevated tryptase levels. This case emphasizes the importance of vigilant monitoring during protamine administration, particularly in high-risk patients, and highlights the need to consider alternative reversal strategies to enhance patient safety.
