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

backgroundThe effects of isolated heart rate (HR) and mean blood pressure (MBP) on myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) have been investigated, but the combined impact of intraoperative HR and MBP remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the influence of the heart rate-mean arterial pressure ratio (HMR) on MINS to optimize hemodynamic management.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study included adult patients who underwent general anesthesia and postoperative troponin measurements at Meizhou People's Hospital. The primary exposure was the time-weighted area above the HMR threshold (1.0) (TWAAT-HMR > 1.0), and the primary outcome was MINS within one postoperative day. The diagnostic performance of TWAAT-HMR > 1.0, the time-weighted area under MBP < 60 mmHg, and the time-weighted area above HR > 100 bpm was evaluated using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis. Logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess the association between HMR and MINS. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to confirm the robustness of the findings, and subgroup analyses examined potential interactions with age, sex, and body mass index.

resultsAmong 699 patients, the incidence of MINS was 9.4%. TWAAT-HMR > 1.0 demonstrated superior predictive accuracy for MINS compared to time-weighted areas under/above MBP and HR (AUC: 0.708 vs. 0.646 and 0.640, respectively). TWAAT-HMR > 1.0 was identified as an independent risk factor for MINS (odds ratio [OR] = 1.71, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.35-2.17, p < 0.001). RCS analysis showed a linear increase in MINS risk with rising HMR (p for non-linearity = 0.507). Sensitivity and subgroup analyses supported the primary findings.

conclusionElevated HMR is associated with a higher risk of MINS in adults undergoing general anesthesia. HMR monitoring may serve as a valuable parameter for optimizing perioperative hemodynamic management.
