One Neglected Complication in the BPA Process? Severe Vagal Response During the Angioplasty Procedure-A Case Report.
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 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
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is now a widely accepted treatment for inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), but it still faces the problem of high complications. Herein, we report a rare case of severe vagal response during the BPA of a total occlusion lesion in a patient with CTEPH. The patient experienced acute chest pain and dyspnea, accompanied by a significant decrease in heart rate and blood pressure. After administering atropine, the patient's symptoms rapidly subsided. This case highlights the potential for vascular and pleural injury with chest pain, which can lead to severe vagal response during the BPA procedures. To minimize this risk, avoiding guide wire-induced injury to the pleura situated distal to the target vessel is crucial.
