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

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a pathophysiological disorder defined by an increase in pulmonary arterial pressure which can occur in multiple clinical conditions. Irrespective of etiology, PH entails a negative impact on exercise capacity and quality of life, and is associated with high mortality particularly in pulmonary arterial hypertension. Noninvasive imaging techniques play an important role in suggesting the presence of PH, providing noninvasive pulmonary pressure measurements, classifying the group of PH, identifying a possibly underlying disease, providing prognostic information and assessing response to treatment. While echocardiography, computed tomography (CT) and ventilation/perfusion scans are an integral part of routine work-up of patients with suspected PH according to current guidelines and across centers, innovative new techniques and applications in the field of PH such as 3D echocardiography, dual-energy CT, 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), T1 and extracellular volume fraction mapping, non-contrast-enhanced MRI sequences for perfusion and ventilation assessment, and molecular-targeted positron emission tomography are emerging. This review discusses advanced and emerging imaging techniques in diagnosis, prognostic evaluation and follow-up of patients with PH.
