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

Reperfusion pulmonary edema (RPE) is a severe complication after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) and is associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation, organ dysfunction, and worse outcome. While residual pulmonary hypertension after PEA is associated with RPE, studies on preoperative risk factors for RPE after PEA are scarce. We investigated a potential association between preoperative hemodynamic values and development of RPE after PEA surgery. All adult CTEPH-patients who underwent PEA surgery at the Kerckhoff-Clinic Bad Nauheim, Germany, between 2018 and 2021 were included. The primary endpoint was development of postoperative RPE. Preoperative hemodynamic values and patient characteristics were compared between patients with and without RPE. Receiver Operating Characteristic curve analysis and logistic regression models were used for identification of risk factors for RPE. A total of 483 patients were included in this analysis (mean age 61 ± 13 years, 57% male). 75 patients developed postoperative RPE. ROC analysis revealed a significant discrimination for RPE by preoperative mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) [AUC = 0.7, 95% CI: 0.622-0.779]. According to the Youden Index, the cut-off for preoperative mPAP was 54.5 mmHg. Multivariable logistic regression identified preoperative mPAP [OR: 2.684 95% CI: 1.220-5.904,
