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 is a progressive disease often associated with multifactorial etiology. The impact of multiple causes contributing to rapid progression of the disease, to our knowledge has not been thoroughly reviewed in literature. The cause of pulmonary hypertension is often implied from pre-existing comorbidities. A diagnostic and management challenge exists when simultaneous presence of multiple plausible causes exist. Studies evaluating the rapid progression of symptoms in multifactorial pulmonary hypertension to this effect are lacking. We present a case of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in a patient with rapidly progressing symptoms to highlight the need for an early and thorough diagnostic workup.
