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

objectiveThe objective of this study was to assess the correlation between dual-energy computed tomography quantitative parameters and hemodynamics in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.

methodsDual-energy computed tomography of 52 chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension patients were evaluated retrospectively. The mean lung perfused blood volume (lung PBV) and the mean pulmonary artery (PA) enhancement measured at pulmonary parenchymal phase were compared with the hemodynamics by Spearman rank correlation coefficient (rs) and receiver operating characteristic analysis.

resultsLung PBV was correlated with mean pulmonary arterial pressure (rs = 0.47, P < 0.001). Pulmonary artery enhancement was correlated with cardiac index (rs = -0.49, P < 0.001) and pulmonary vascular resistance (rs = 0.48, P < 0.001). The areas under the curves were 0.86 for lung PBV to predict mean pulmonary arterial pressure of >50 mm Hg and 0.86 for PA enhancement to predict pulmonary vascular resistance of >1000 dyne·s/cm.

conclusionsLung PBV and PA enhancement could be indicators of hemodynamics.
