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

Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease is characterized by remodeling of pulmonary arteries, capillaries and venules. We report a case of diffuse lung emphysema and pulmonary veno-occlusive disease with the characteristic of having no airflow limitation. A very low diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide and results of high-resolution computed tomography of the chest suggested pulmonary veno-occlusive disease. The diagnosis was confirmed on histological analysis after lung transplantation. The combination of results of the computed tomography of the chest and the histological analysis suggested a relationship between diffuse lung emphysema and remodeling of pulmonary vessels. A distinctive pattern of mild-to-moderate airflow limitation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and severe pulmonary hypertension has been described. This observation of the combination of diffuse emphysema, pulmonary veno-occlusive disease and no airflow limitation supports further pathophysiological studies on severe pulmonary hypertension in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
