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

Right ventricular (RV) failure is a common consequence of acute and chronic RV overload of pressure, such as after pulmonary embolism and pulmonary hypertension. It has been recently realized that symptomatology and survival of patients with pulmonary hypertension are essentially determined by RV function adaptation to increased afterload. Therefore, improvement of RV function and reversal of RV failure are treatment goals. Currently, the pathophysiology and the pathobiology underlying RV failure remain largely unknown. A better understanding of the pathophysiological processes involved in RV failure is needed, as there is no proven treatment for this disease at the moment. The present review aims to summarize the current understanding of the pathogenesis of RV failure, focusing on inflammation. We attempt to formally emphasize the importance of inflammation and associated representative inflammatory molecules and cells in the
