Comparison of three approaches for adrenal venous sampling in patients with primary aldosteronism.
Article in Journal of endocrinological investigation, 2025. 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
purposeTo compare the feasibility and safety of three approaches for bilateral adrenal venous sampling (AVS) and their influence on the outcomes of adrenalectomy for dominant lateral primary aldosteronism (PA).
methods182 PA patients who underwent AVS at Fuwai Hospital between January 2022 and March 2024 were enrolled. According to the puncture access, patients were divided into three groups: simultaneous AVS via antecubital approach group (Group A, N = 48), simultaneous AVS via femoral approach group (Group B, N = 44) and sequential AVS via antecubital approach group (Group C, N = 90). The baseline data, procedure parameters, success rates, complication rates and follow-up data were analyzed.
resultsThe baseline characteristics did not differ significantly among three groups (all P > 0.05). The procedure time (18.9 ± 7.4 min vs. 25.2 ± 7.5 min; P < 0.001) and fluoroscopy time (7.1 ± 3.8 min vs. 10.8 ± 6.2 min; P < 0.001) were shorter in Group A than in Group C. However, there was no significant difference between Group A and B (all P > 0.05). The bilateral sampling success rates in Groups A, B and C were 93.8%, 93.2% and 91.1%, respectively, which were not significantly different (P = 0.936). One (0.5%) adrenal haematoma was recorded in Group B. The complete clinical success rate (P = 0.894) and complete biochemical success rate (P = 0.954) were not significantly different in patients with dominant lateralization who underwent adrenalectomy.
conclusionThis study revealed that three approaches for AVS are safe and feasible, with similar outcomes after adrenalectomy. Simultaneous AVS via antecubital approach might be a better choice considering its shorter procedure and fluoroscopy time and comfort.
