Real-time changes in pulse pressure during a 10-second end-expiratory occlusion test reliably detect preload responsiveness.
Article in Critical care (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe end-expiratory occlusion (EEO) test detects preload responsiveness through changes in cardiac index (ΔCI) during a 15-second respiratory hold at end-expiration. We investigated the diagnostic accuracy of EEO-induced changes in arterial pulse pressure (∆PP), especially when the duration of EEO is reduced to 10'' and 5'', and whether adding an end-inspiratory occlusion (EIO) improves this diagnostic accuracy.
methodsIn 143 mechanically ventilated patients with sinus rhythm, EEO and EIO were performed while recording ΔCI and ∆PP values. Either a fluid bolus-induced ΔCI ≥ 15% or a passive leg raising-induced ΔCI ≥ 10% defined preload responsiveness. The effects of the EEO and EIO tests on PP and CI were evaluated as the percentage difference between values averaged either over the last five seconds of the 15-sec respiratory holds (ΔPP
resultsSixty-one (43%) patients were preload responders. Both ∆CI
conclusionIn ventilated patients with sinus rhythm, real-time changes in PP during a 10-second EEO reliably detect preload responsiveness.
