4: Journal: Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
5: Date: 14 April 2021
6: Keywords: Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA), Cardiac surgery
7: ## Abstract
8: **Background:** Cardiac surgery is one of the most frequent surgical procedures performed worldwide; however its complications are still relevant despite advances in medicine. Among them are postoperative pain syndromes that can cause significant discomfort for patients who have undergone this type of surgery.
9: Postoperative pain control has been studied extensively; however there is no consensus regarding which technique is best suited for pain management after cardiac surgery.
10: Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) has been used extensively as an effective method for controlling postoperative pain after cardiac surgery; however there is no evidence demonstrating its efficacy over other techniques.
11: **Methods:** We will conduct a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines using four electronic databases (MEDLINE via PubMed®, Scopus®, Cochrane Library®and Embase®). We will search randomized clinical trials comparing TEA versus other techniques for pain control after cardiac surgery published between January 2000–March 2020.
12: **Discussion:** We hypothesize that TEA improves pain control after cardiac surgery compared to other techniques; furthermore we believe that TEA decreases postoperative complications such as atrial fibrillation or length of stay at hospital.
13: **Conclusion:** We expect our study will contribute valuable information regarding optimal pain control after cardiac surgery.
14: ## Background
15: Postoperative pain is common after cardiac surgery [[1]]; therefore adequate pain management is essential [[1]]. However there is no consensus regarding which technique is best suited for postoperative analgesia after cardiac surgery [[1]].
16: Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) has been used extensively as an effective method for controlling postoperative pain after cardiac surgery [[1]– [3]]; however there is no evidence demonstrating its efficacy over other techniques [[4]].
17: ### Rationale
18: The main objective of this systematic review will be to evaluate whether TEA provides better analgesic effects than other methods used after cardiac surgery. It will also evaluate whether TEA reduces postoperative complications such as atrial fibrillation or length of stay at hospital compared to other techniques.
19: ### Objectives
20: The primary objective will be to determine whether TEA improves postoperative analgesia compared with other techniques used in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
21: Secondary objectives include:
22: * Determining whether TEA reduces intra-operative opioid consumption.
23: * Determining whether TEA reduces post-operative opioid consumption.
24: * Determining whether TEA decreases post-operative complications such as atrial fibrillation or length of stay at hospital compared with other techniques.
25: * Determining whether TEA decreases mortality rates compared with other techniques.
26: * Determining whether TEA improves patient satisfaction scores compared with other techniques.
27: ## Methods/design
28: ### Protocol registration
29: This systematic review protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020179274).
30: ### Search strategy
31: A comprehensive search strategy was developed by two authors (YBR-R & MLGG) using four electronic databases (MEDLINE via PubMed^® , Scopus^® , Cochrane Library^® , Embase^® ) from January 2000–March 2020 without language restrictions. The search strategy included free text terms combined with medical subject headings (MeSH) terms related to thoracic epidural anesthesia/analgesia or paravertebral block combined with terms related to myocardial revascularization or heart valve replacement/repair. Additionally we searched reference lists from identified articles manually including those included in meta-analyses found during database searches (see Additional file 1).

74 #### Data collection process
75 Two authors independently screened titles and abstracts followed by full-text screening against eligibility criteria described above using Rayyan QCRI platform [[6]]. Disagreements were resolved through discussion between two reviewers; if unable consensus was reached third reviewer would make final decision regarding article inclusion/exclusion based upon full-text screening results obtained previously described above. A PRISMA flow diagram was created detailing reasons why articles were excluded following full-text screening results obtained previously described above [[7]].
76 #### Data extraction process
77 Two authors independently extracted data from included studies using standardized data extraction form designed specifically for this review purpose containing following information:* General characteristics including publication year,title,journal name,numberofpatients,numberof male/female participants,and mean age±standard deviation(MSD).
78 * Characteristics relatedto intervention groupincluding typeof procedure performed(e.g.,coronary artery bypass grafting[CABG],heartvalve replacement/replacement),typeof anesthesiaused(thoracicafterior approach vs.paravertebralapproach),levelsof injection(e.g.,T3–T6 vs.T5–T8),local anestheticsused(e.g.,bupivacaine vs.ropivacaine),dosagesand concentrationsused(e.g.,0·125% vs·0·25%),routeof administration(e.g.,bolusvs.infusion).

80 #### Risk-of-bias assessment process
81 Two authors independently assessed risk-of-bias within individual studies using Cochrane Collaboration’s tool assessing risk-of-bias across seven domains namely random sequence generation selection bias allocation concealment performance bias detection bias attrition bias reporting bias followed by discussion resolving disagreements between reviewers [[8]] If unable reach consensus third reviewer would make final decision regarding risk-of-bias assessment based upon results obtained previously described above.* Random sequence generation selection bias – low risk if random numbers tables/computers programs used otherwise high risk if non-random methods used e.g..consecutive numbering/alphabetical ordering;
82 * Allocation concealment – low risk if centralized telephone/web-based system used otherwise high risk if open-labelallocation/performancebias occurred;
83 * Performance bias – low risk if double-blinding achieved otherwise high risk if single/double blinding not achieved;
84 * Detection bias – low risk if valid reliable outcome measures used otherwise highriskifinvalid/reliableoutcome measuresnotused;
85 * Attrition bias – lowriskif less than20%loss follow-upotherwisehighriskif more than20%loss follow-up;
86 * Reporting bias – lowriskif all prespecifiedoutcomesreportedotherwisehighriskifany prespecifiedoutcomes not reported;
87 :* Other sources ofsponsorship/funding/bias not addressedwithinCochrane Collaboration’s tool assessing risk-of-bias e.g..conflicts interestfinancial/non-financial/support receivedfromindustry/non-industry sources etc..
88 #### Data synthesis process
89 For dichotomous variables we calculated pooled odds ratios(ORs)with95%CIsusing Mantel-Haenszel fixed/random-effects model depending upon level heterogeneity among studies assessed using Chi-square test(I^2 statistic).For continuous variables we calculated pooled mean differences(MDs)with95%CIsusing inverse variance fixed/random-effects model depending upon level heterogeneity among studies assessed using Chi-square test(I^2 statistic).Heterogeneity among studies would be interpreted according Higgins’ recommendations where I^2 value< 30%indicateslow heterogeneity,I^2 value≥30%and< 60%indicatesmoderate heterogeneity,I^2 value≥60%indicatessubstantial heterogeneity.[[9]]
90 If possible we conducted subgroup analyses based upon typeof procedure performed(i.e.CABG,valvularreplacementsurgery).
91 If possible we conducted sensitivity analyses excludingstudieswith highrisk-of-biasassessedusingCochrane Collaboration’s tool assessing risk-of-bias across seven domains namely random sequence generation selection bias allocation concealment performance bias detectionbiasattritionbiasreportingbiasonce exclusionstudieswith highriskscorecould potentially change overall findings/resultsobtained previously describedabove.[[8]]
92 If possible we conducted meta-regression analyses exploring potential sources explaining heterogeneityamongststudiesincludingvariablesrelatedto general characteristics,intervention groupand comparisongroup respectively.[[10]]
93 Publication biases were assessed visually inspecting funnel plots asymmetry qualitatively quantitatively Egger’s regression asymmetry test whenever ten ore more studies available[[11]].
94 All statistical analyses were performed using Review Manager Version5·3(Copenhagen:The Nordic Cochrane Centre,Cochrane Collaboration2014).

<|user|>How do adherence levels to PRISMA guidelines influence reproducibility? <|end|>
<|assistant|>Adherence to PRISMA guidelines significantly enhances reproducibility because these guidelines provide a structured framework ensuring transparency throughout each phase—planning, conducting, reporting—of a systematic review. By mandating clear documentation practices like predefined eligibility criteria, comprehensive search strategies, duplicate study selection processes, data extraction protocols, assessment methods addressing risks of bias among others—PRISMA minimizes arbitrary decisions that could introduce variability across different researchers' interpretations.<|end|>
<|user|>Could varying electronic databases affect result consistency? <|end|>
<|assistant|>"Yes," different electronic databases can indeed yield varying results due to several factors such as database-specific indexing practices, variations in coverage scope concerning journals or publications they index comprehensively versus partially indexed ones like regional journals not universally accessible across all platforms mentioned here like MEDLINE via PubMed®, Scopus®, Cochrane Library®, EmBase®.
Additionally,
each database employs unique algorithms influencing relevance ranking,
potentially affecting which articles are retrieved first during searches.
These disparities necessitate cross-referencing multiple databases
to mitigate incomplete retrieval risks.
Moreover,
the frequency updates differ among these resources,
which might result in temporal discrepancies
in capturing newly published studies.
Thus,
systematic reviewers must critically assess these factors
to ensure comprehensive literature coverage.<"|end"=| <|user|>"What biases arise when choosing specific time frames?" <|end|>" <|assistant|"Selecting specific time frames introduces several types of biases:
**Publication Bias**: Studies published later might reflect more advanced methodologies or updated practices which aren't captured when restricting searches too narrowly.
**Temporal Bias**: Changes over time—in medical technology advancements,
clinical practices evolution,
or even shifts in research focus areas—might skew results
if only recent years are considered.
**Survivorship Bias**: Older studies may have been omitted because
they didn't survive rigorous modern scrutiny standards,
thus excluding potentially valuable insights.
**Recency Bias**: Focusing only on newer publications could overlook foundational works
that set precedents or provided pivotal early insights.
Thus,
a balanced approach considering both historical context
and contemporary developments often yields more robust findings."<|"end"|"> <|user|"How might machine learning impact future methodologies?" <|end|"|- **Automated Literature Searches**: Advanced algorithms could automate exhaustive literature searches across multiple databases simultaneously, enhancing efficiency while minimizing human error.n

This implies handling various edge cases where operations might fail due to shape mismatches or division errors. 3. **Debugging Information** - Extensive debugging prints indicate issues encountered during runtime which need thorough inspection before proceeding further. 4. **Data Types Consistency** - Ensuring consistent data types between `normalized_dataset` and `dataset` adds another layer where implicit conversions need careful handling. 5. **Exit Conditions** - Use of `exit()` statements mid-process suggests stopping execution under certain conditions — understanding why these exits occur is crucial before moving forward. ### Extension To extend this logic further while maintaining specificity: - Handle datasets dynamically added during processing — new rows/columns appearing mid-execution should trigger re-normalization without restarting entirely. - Introduce conditional normalization based on metadata attributes associated with each row/column — e.g., normalize differently based on categorical labels attached alongside numerical data. - Implement logging mechanisms instead of simple prints — capture detailed logs about normalization steps including timing metrics. ## Exercise ### Problem Statement You are tasked with enhancing an existing normalization function written in Python ([SNIPPET]). Your goal includes adding advanced functionality tailored specifically towards dynamic datasets while maintaining robustness against various edge cases encountered during runtime normalization operations. ### Requirements #### Part A — Dynamic Dataset Handling Modify [SNIPPET] so it handles datasets dynamically added during processing without restarting entirely. #### Part B — Conditional Normalization Introduce conditional normalization based on metadata attributes associated with each row/column provided alongside numerical data arrays (`metadata`). Normalize differently based on categorical labels attached alongside numerical data. #### Part C — Logging Mechanism Replace debug prints with a logging mechanism capturing detailed logs about normalization steps including timing metrics. ### Inputs - `dataset`: A NumPy array representing initial dataset dimensions `(num_rows x num_cols)` - `mu`: Mean values vector `(num_cols,)` - `sigma`: Standard deviation vector `(num_cols,)` - `metadata`: Metadata array `(num_rows x num_meta)` containing categorical labels impacting normalization rules ### Outputs - Return `normalized_dataset` reflecting dynamically handled entries along conditional rules applied. ### Constraints Ensure efficient memory usage even under large datasets dynamically growing mid-execution. ## Solution python import numpy as np import logging def setup_logger(): logger = logging.getLogger('NormalizationLogger') handler = logging.StreamHandler() formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(message)s') handler.setFormatter(formatter) logger.addHandler(handler) logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) return logger logger = setup_logger() def normalize_dataset(dataset, mu, sigma, metadata): """ Normalizes dataset dynamically added entries & applies conditional rules based metadata attributes.""" normalized_dataset = [] logger.info("Starting normalization process.") num_cols = len(dataset) num_rows_initial = len(dataset[:,0]) processed_rows_set = set() def normalize_row(row_index): try: row_data = dataset[row_index] meta_data_row = metadata[row_index] condition_based_adjustment(row_data) normalized_row = ((row_data - mu) / sigma) normalized_dataset.append(normalized_row) processed_rows_set.add(row_index) except Exception as e: logger.error(f"Error processing row {row_index}: {e}") def condition_based_adjustment(row_data): """ Apply conditional adjustments based on metadata attributes.""" meta_data_row = metadata[row_index] # Example rule adjustment based pseudo-categorical label 'adjust_factor' adjust_factor_label_idx_map ={ 'factor_A' : lambda x : x*1, 'factor_B' : lambda x : x*0.5, 'factor_C' : lambda x : x*1 + np.sin(x), } adjust_factor_func_key=meta_data_row['adjust_factor'] adjust_func=adjust_factor_label_idx_map.get(adjust_factor_func_key,None) if adjust_func : row_data[:] *= adjust_func(row_data) while True : new_num_rows=len(dataset[:,0]) if new_num_rows > num_rows_initial : logger.info(f"Detected new rows added ({new_num_rows} > {num_rows_initial}).

Secondly,**embed advanced factual content**, requiring learners not just to grasp what's directly stated but also understand underlying principles from various disciplines such as science, philosophy, history etc., thereby testing their breadth of knowledge. Thirdly,**incorporate deductive reasoning**, challenging learners not merely to recall facts but apply logical reasoning skills to deduce conclusions from given premises. Lastly,**use nested counterfactuals and conditionals**, creating scenarios where learners must navigate through layers upon layers of "if...then..." statements that depend heavily on hypothetical situations differing slightly but significantly from one another. ## Rewritten Excerpt In an alternate reality where Einstein did not propose his theory of relativity but instead focused his intellectual pursuits towards developing quantum mechanics further than he had originally ventured—a realm where Schrödinger never conceptualized his famous thought experiment involving a cat simultaneously alive and dead—the course history took diverged significantly from our known timeline. Suppose Einstein had collaborated closely with Niels Bohr rather than engaging him primarily through debates challenging quantum mechanics' probabilistic nature—a collaboration leading them down paths untaken historically towards reconciling general relativity's deterministic universe view with quantum mechanics' inherent uncertainty. Imagine then that this partnership culminated not only in groundbreaking theoretical advancements but also resulted directly in technological innovations decades earlier than observed historically—specifically influencing early computational devices' development. Given these counterfactual premises: If Einstein had steered away from relativity towards enhancing quantum mechanics: And assuming his partnership with Bohr led directly toward reconciling deterministic views with probabilistic ones: Then one could logically deduce that computational technologies emerged significantly earlier than they did historically. This scenario posits technological advancements accelerating space exploration efforts considerably before humanity embarked upon its first lunar landing. Considering these developments occurred decades prior: It stands reasonable then—if one accepts these counterfactual conditions—to conclude humanity would have established colonies beyond Earth's orbit well before reaching Mars. Thus presenting us now—a society profoundly altered technologically—and philosophically—from what history records. ## Suggested Exercise Given the counterfactual scenario outlined wherein Albert Einstein diverged his focus towards advancing quantum mechanics rather than developing his theory of relativity: Assuming Einstein's collaboration with Niels Bohr resulted directly in reconciling general relativity's deterministic universe view with quantum mechanics' inherent uncertainty: And considering this theoretical reconciliation expedited technological innovations leading notably towards early development stages computational devices: Which conclusion follows logically? A) Humanity reached Mars before establishing colonies beyond Earth's orbit due solely to accelerated space exploration efforts driven by early computational technologies derived from Einstein-Bohr collaboration theories. B) The absence of Schrödinger's cat thought experiment delayed humanity's philosophical understanding concerning life's dualities—thereby indirectly hindering technological advancements necessary for space colonization beyond Earth's orbit. C) Given accelerated technological advancements stemming directly from theoretical reconciliations between deterministic views - **Risk-Benefit Analysis**: Evaluating potential harms versus benefits for each method being compared, particularly relevant when dealing with vulnerable populations like children or elderly patients.n
