The role of a specialized urethral catheter in early detection of intra-abdominal hypertension: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. 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
Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) impact morbidity and mortality in burn patients, exacerbated by extensive fluid resuscitation required for more than 20% of total body surface area burns. We report a case of a 28-year-old male with severe burns and a TBSA of 49% who presented after a fire incident. The trauma team managed the patient's fluid resuscitation, followed by early burn debridement. A TraumaGuard catheter was used for continuous intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) monitoring. On the second day of admission, a critical IAP of 20 mm Hg was detected, indicative of impending ACS. Immediate intervention with cistracurium and increased sedation reduced the IAP to 9 mm Hg, preventing the progression to ACS. This case demonstrates the importance of routine IAP monitoring in severely burned patients to prevent ACS. Early identification and management of elevated IAP can avert the progression to ACS and reduce the need for more invasive interventions.
