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

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) can cause right heart failure. A concomitant psychiatric disorder (PD) is thought to increase the risk of acute pulmonary thromboembolism; however, whether PDs are associated with deterioration in CTEPH pathophysiology is unclear. In this study, we evaluated the clinical characteristics and prognoses in patients with CTEPH and a co-existing PD. We retrospectively identified 229 consecutive patients (mean age = 58.7 ± 12.5 years; 160 women) with CTEPH and categorized them according to whether they had a PD (PD group; n = 22, 9.7%) or not (non-PD group; n = 207, 90.3%). We compared the clinical characteristics, respiratory function, hemodynamics, and clinical courses in the two groups. Those in the PD group had significantly lower exercise tolerance compared to the non-PD group (6-min walk test, 309.5 ± 89.5 m vs. 369.4 ± 97.9 m, P = 0.008, percent vital capacity 85.5% ± 17.3% vs. 96.0% ± 15.5%, P = 0.003) and partial pressure of oxygen (PaO
