Stimulants and Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: An Update.
Article in Advances in pulmonary hypertension, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
The connection between stimulants and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was first made apparent in the 1960s during an outbreak associated with anorexigen (amphetamine-like appetite suppressants) use. Since then, a total of 16 drugs and toxins have been linked to PAH (ie, drug and toxin-associated PAH [DT-APAH]), including illicit stimulants like methamphetamine. Recently, basic science research and novel genomic studies have started to shed light on possible pathologic and genetic mechanisms implicated in disease development, namely loss of function variants in genes involved in drug detoxification. This review will discuss the history and current state of knowledge regarding stimulants and their association with PAH. It will also discuss clinical management of patients with DT-APAH. Lastly, it will highlight the importance of ongoing research efforts to identify susceptibility factors implicated in DT-APAH and the need for increased pharmacovigilance and awareness to identify new drugs that may be risk factors for PAH. Ultimately, this may be our best strategy to improve clinical outcomes and prevent deadly future outbreaks of DT-APAH.
