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

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive disease that causes high patient mortality. With limited hemodynamic reserve, many PH patients require maintenance IV infusion medications to maintain their activities of daily living. One common delivery method for this targeted therapy is through a Remodulin® (treprostinil) pump. When presenting for emergent evaluation, decompensating PH patients have a broad differential diagnosis including pump failure. PH patients are at a high risk of poor patient outcomes given the difficulty in recognizing PH-specific symptoms and unique aspects of their management. Therefore, learners will benefit from participating in an immersive simulation-based PH patient scenario in a safe learning environment. Here, we present a simulated scenario of a decompensating PH patient on a Remodulin® pump.
