Platypnea Orthodeoxia Syndrome Secondary to Intracardiac Shunt Following Orthotopic Liver Transplantation.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Platypnea orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) occurs when an upright position results in acute-onset hypoxemia and is relieved with recumbency. POS can be due to intracardiac shunting, intrapulmonary shunting, ventilation-perfusion mismatch, or a combination of these. We report a case of POS that developed 3 days post liver transplantation as a result of new-onset right to left shunting across a patent foramen ovale. Right heart catheterization revealed a posteriorly directed inferior vena cava likely due to altered inferior vena cava-right atrial junction anatomy as a result of liver transplantation. The patient underwent successful transcatheter patent foramen ovale closure with a 25-mm Gore Cardioform septal occluder device with immediate and sustained improvement in hypoxia.
