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

Increasing evidence points towards an inflammatory component underlying pulmonary hypertension. However, the conclusive characterisation of multiple inflammatory cell populations in the lung is challenging due to the complexity of marker specificity and tissue inaccessibility. We used an unbiased computational flow cytometry approach to delineate the inflammatory landscape of idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and healthy donor lungs.Donor and IPAH samples were discriminated clearly using principal component analysis to reduce the multidimensional data obtained from single-cell flow cytometry analysis. In IPAH lungs, the predominant CD45
