The Emerging Role of Multimodality Imaging in the Diagnosis and Management of Post Pericardiotomy Syndrome.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2025. 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
purpose of reviewThis review aims to evaluate current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for postpericardiotomy syndrome (PPS), with a focus on the evolving role of multimodality imaging, including echocardiography, cardiac computed tomography (CCT), and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). The review also explores the potential benefits of advanced imaging in improving the accuracy and management of PPS. RECENT
findingsPPS, a common complication following cardiac surgery, presents with pleuritic chest pain, fever, and pericardial or pleural effusion. Traditional diagnostic methods like echocardiography and X-ray are increasingly supplemented by advanced imaging modalities such as CCT and CMR. These tools allow for better visualization of pericardial inflammation and effusion, aiding in diagnosis and guiding treatment. Colchicine and NSAIDs remain the most effective treatments for PPS, while the role of corticosteroids remains uncertain. Biological treatments have shown promising results in managing recurrent pericarditis. This review presents a proposed algorithm for the diagnosis and management of PPS, drawing on our institutional experience. Multimodality imaging is emerging as an essential tool in diagnosing and managing PPS. It enhances diagnostic precision, informs treatment strategies, and provides prognostic insights. As imaging technology advances, integrating these modalities into PPS care has the potential to improve patient outcomes.
