Trial report in Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07531602 (The Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure on Biventricular Mechanics in the Perioperative Setting), which is not on this map. Cited by 31 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

Clinical assessment of right ventricular (RV) contractility in diseases such as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been hindered by the lack of a robust methodology. Here, a novel, clinically viable, single-beat method was developed to assess end-systolic elastance (E
