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

purpose of reviewPulmonary hypertension (PH) frequently complicates heart failure and portends a worse prognosis. This review will summarize and discuss recent updates in the classification and management of patients with PH due to left heart disease. RECENT

findingsCareful hemodynamic assessment is critical to the classification of patients with PH and heart failure. Two hemodynamic subgroups of PH in heart failure patients have been described: isolated post-capillary pulmonary hypertension and combined post- and precapillary pulmonary hypertension. The cornerstone in management of PH due to left heart disease is the treatment of the underlying left heart pathology; however, ongoing trials have been designed to test pulmonary vasodilators in this cohort. PH-specific therapies have not demonstrated a benefit in patients with pulmonary hypertension due to left heart disease. Understanding the distinct pathobiology of each hemodynamic subgroup may lead to the development of useful biomarkers and effective targeted therapies.
