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

purpose of reviewPulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) in children contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality in diverse pediatric cardiac, lung, hematologic and other diseases. Advances in pulmonary vascular biology over the past few decades have significantly expanded therapeutic strategies; however, many unique issues persist regarding our understanding of pediatric PAH. RECENT

findingsRecent studies of pediatric PAH include those that highlight gaps in our understanding of pediatric diseases associated with PAH from those of adult onset, emphasizing the strong need for specific studies regarding unique aspects of the pathogenesis and treatment of children with PAH. Registries have begun to provide new data showing differences in physiology, course, and genetics between adult and pediatric forms of PAH. Unfortunately, therapeutic strategies in pediatric pulmonary hypertension are often limited to small observational studies in children and are dependent on results from larger adult studies. In addition, clinical endpoints for studies and care remain poorly defined in infants and children. SUMMARY: Despite many advances, long-term outcomes for children with PAH remain guarded and substantial challenges persist, especially with regard to understanding mechanisms and approach to severe PAH. Future studies are needed to develop novel biomarkers, clinical endpoints and interventions for young children with diverse causes of PAH.
