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

backgroundSurgical treatment of pheochromocytomas is associated with circulatory dynamics instability, necessitating systemic management of the patient in the intensive care unit after surgery. Early mobilization after pheochromocytoma surgery is not described in the guidelines, and to our knowledge, no reports have specifically focused on circulatory dynamics during early mobilization after surgery. CASE PRESENTATION: A 31-year-old Japanese woman was diagnosed with bilateral pheochromocytoma and underwent a second-stage adrenalectomy for bilateral pheochromocytoma at our hospital. We evaluated circulatory dynamics during a passive upright posture on postoperative days 1 and 4. She was placed on a tilt bed in the supine position (0° head) for 15 min, passive upright posture (60°) for 15 min, and supine position again for 10 min. In the passive upright posture, both systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased, and the heart rate increased by 10 bpm over approximately 10 minutes. After the postural change from the passive upright posture to the supine position, the heart rate decreased to a level lower than in the supine prior to the passive upright posture. The same measurements were taken on postoperative day 4. Systolic blood pressure decreased in the passive upright posture, but diastolic blood pressure remained unchanged. The heart rate also increased earlier after passive upright posture compared with that on the day after surgery. When the patient returned to the supine position from the passive upright posture, the heart rate decreased even further compared with its level prior to the passive upright posture, as observed on the day after surgery.

conclusionCirculatory dynamics may fluctuate after surgery for pheochromocytoma due to a relative decrease in epinephrine and norepinephrine secretion. In this case, the patient's response may be close to normal by the fourth postoperative day, but circulatory dynamics fluctuations were noted on both the first and fourth postoperative days when the patient was supine after passive upright posture. Although the substantial variability of perioperative circulatory dynamics in patients with pheochromocytoma has improved considerably with the development of perioperative management guidelines, circulatory dynamics should be carefully monitored during early mobilization and after its completion.
