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

Acute right ventricular failure remains an immensely challenging clinical condition associated with a high mortality rate. In this narrative review, we highlight the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying right ventricular failure and suggest an initial diagnostic approach to this critically ill group of patients. Based on the best available evidence and our cumulative clinical experience as a national cardiothoracic centre, we summarize the basic principles of medical management and mechanical salvage therapy, finalizing with a series of recommendations for the management of right ventricular failure in specific clinical scenarios.
