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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe role of vasoactive chemicals in the pathogenesis of hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS), a disorder characterized by intrapulmonary vascular dilation (IPVD), is only vaguely elucidated. We aimed to study the association between plasma H

methodsConsecutive adult patients with cryptogenic cirrhosis were evaluated for IPVD (by contrast echocardiography) and for hypoxemia (by arterial blood gas analysis). Plasma H

resultsFifty-eight patients with cryptogenic cirrhosis (male, 45; median age, range, 45, 16-74 years; Child's class; A, 30; B, 18; C, 10) were enrolled in this study. Thirty-four of the 58 (59%) patients had IPVD and 13 (22%) had HPS (mild, 4; moderate, 5; severe, 2; very severe, 2). Plasma H
