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 defined as resting mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) ≥25 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) via right heart (RH) catheterization (RHC), where increased afterload in the pulmonary arterial vasculature leads to alterations in RH structure and function. Mortality rates have remained high despite therapy, however non-invasive imaging holds the potential to expedite diagnosis and lead to earlier initiation of treatment, with the hope of improving prognosis. While historically the right ventricle (RV) had been considered a passive chamber with minimal role in the overall function of the heart, in recent years in the evaluation of PH and RH failure the anatomical and functional assessment of the RV has received increased attention regarding its performance and its relationship to other structures in the RH-pulmonary circulation. Today, the RV is the key determinant of patient survival. This review provides an overview and summary of non-invasive imaging methods to assess RV structure, function, flow, and tissue characterization in the setting of imaging's contribution to the diagnostic, severity stratification, prognostic risk, response of treatment management, and disease surveillance implications of PH's impact on RH dysfunction and clinical RH failure.
