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

objectivesPericardial effusion (PE) is correlated with outcomes in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Pulmonary artery denervation (PADN) was used for treatment of PAH. The present study aimed to analyze the prognostic value of PE for outcomes after PADN in patients with WHO Group I, Group II and Group IV PAH.

resultsPE, frequently seen in patients with connective tissue disease, was featured by fast heart rate, decreased exercise capacity, more syncope, worsening pulmonary arterial hemodynamic and right atrium size. PADN procedure resulted in dramatic reduction of PE. After a median of 376 days follow-up, the rate of PAH-related event, all-cause death and rehospitalization increased over the PE amount and occurred in 29.8%, 19.7% and 25.2% of patients with PE, different to 3.4%, 3.4% and 6.8% of patients without PE ( MATERIALS AND

methodsBetween March 2012 and July 2014, a total of 66 consecutive patients (52 ± 16 years) who underwent PADN were stratified by no PE (

conclusionsPE is associated with increased PAH-related event after PADN. PADN results in significant similar reduction of PE among patients with Group I, Group II and Group IV PAH.
