Acute myocardial injury induced by pheochromocytoma: a case report.
Review in BMC cardiovascular disorders, 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
backgroundPheochromocytomas (PCC) are neuroendocrine tumors derived from neural crest cells. PCC typically develop within the adrenal medulla and are known for their catecholamine hypersecretion, leading to acute myocardial injuries and cardiac dysfunction, such as acute heart failure, pulmonary embolism, cardiogenic shock, and tachyarrhythmia. In the clinic, the rarity of these conditions often results in diagnostic challenges, which can delay crucial treatment interventions. CASE PRESENTATION: A 37-year-old woman presented with headache, chest discomfort, hypertension, and was detected myocardial injury. Chest computed tomography revealed a mass inside the left adrenal limb. The elevation of methoxy-catecholamines in urine confirmed the diagnosis of PCC. After a left adrenal mass resection, the plasma catecholamine level was recovery to normal. At the telephone follow-up, the patient complained of occasional episodes of palpitation, but no pain or other discomfort.
conclusionsWe present a case of acute myocardial injury caused by PCC and conduct a relevant literature review to provide experience for the clinic. In young patients lacking cardiovascular risk factors presenting with episodes of hypertension and chest tightness, it is recommended to perform CT imaging to differentiate between PCC and cardiovascular diseases. All patients with PCC are advised to refine genetic testing.
