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

backgroundMany studies have highlighted sex preponderance in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). It is well established that there are differences in exercise capacities in the two sexes but how much of that difference reflects on disease severity or correlates to markers of severity in the two sexes is still not clear. Right heart catheterization (RHC) and cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) have been widely used for assessing functional capacity, prognosis and treatment response in IPAH. We aimed to investigate the 'sex-specific' CPET parameters in relation to hemodynamics in IPAH.

methodsData were retrieved from 30 males and 53 females [mean ± standard deviation (SD) age: 39.6 ± 17.2 and 37.5 ± 12.0] stable IPAH patients who underwent both RHC and CPET at Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital from 2010 to 2016. Univariate and forward/backward multiple stepwise regression analysis was performed to assess the prognostic value of CPET and hemodynamic parameters.

resultsThere were no significant differences in clinical variables between men and women. Peak workload, peak oxygen uptake, anaerobic threshold (AT), peak minute ventilation, carbon dioxide output, O

conclusionsEven after adjusting for age, body mass index and World Health Organization functional class, different CPET parameters correlated with PVR elevation and CO decline in men and women differently, which could potentially better predict severity in men and women with IPAH.
