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

objectiveTo evaluate the clinical value of serum asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA) in patients with connective tissue disease- (CTD-) associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

methods88 patients with CTD were recruited between December 2017 and August 2018 in Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital. Patients were further divided into two groups: CTD-without PAH (

resultsThe serum levels of ADMA in the CTD-PAH group were significantly higher than those of the CTD-without PAH group and healthy control group (

conclusionIncreased ADMA levels are independently associated with the presence and severity of PAH in CTD patients. The levels of ADMA in the serum may contribute to be a noninvasive indicator for early diagnosis of CTD-with PAH patients.
