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 reviewIn patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, the presence of pulmonary hypertension (PH-LHD) has a significant impact on their prognosis. The purpose of this review is to explain the methods of diagnosing PH-LHD and then discuss the available therapeutic options. RECENT

findingsWe begin by examining the methods of assessment of PH-LHD-echocardiography, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and right heart catheterization-with a particular focus on the importance of accurate measurement to ensure the proper determination of PH-LHD. We then focus primarily on management of PH-LHD, with an examination of trials of therapeutic options, use of mechanical circulatory support, and transplantation. This review highlights the complexities in diagnosis and management of PH-LHD. We outline a number of useful ways to maximize the yield of diagnostic testing, as well as give suggestions on the use of medical therapies, the role of both temporary mechanical support and left ventricular assist device, and finally the ways to best bridge these patients to transplantation.
