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

Background: Non-metastatic pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are considered a curable cause of secondary hypertension. However, some studies identified that a considerable ratio of patients (10.0-43.8%) still experience persistent hypertension even after successful resection of PPGLs. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 472 PPGL patients who underwent surgical resection at three centers from January 1, 2012, to October 31, 2022. Comprehensive clinical data were recorded. Binary unconditional logistic analysis was conducted to identify the independent variables associated with long-term persistent hypertension. Results: The cohort had an average age of 50.5 years, and the median follow-up duration was 61 months. A total of 26.3% of PPGL patients experienced long-term persistent hypertension. After multivariate analysis, we identified older age (odds ratio (OR): 1.021, P = 0.008), higher body mass index (BMI, OR: 1.088, P = 0.004), lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, OR: 3.506, P = 0.006), and developed intraoperative hemodynamic instability (HDI, OR: 2.053, P = 0.002) as independent risk factors for long-term persistent hypertension in PPGL patients. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that nearly a quarter of PPGL patients still suffer from persistent hypertension after successful resection and identified several risk factors, such as older age, higher BMI, lower LVEF, and developed intraoperative HDI. These results might contribute to improving long-term follow-up strategies.
