Echocardiographic evaluation of right ventricular-arterial coupling in pulmonary hypertension.
Review in American journal of cardiovascular disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 hemodynamic condition characterized by chronically elevated mean pulmonary artery pressure (m-PAP ≥ 25 mmHg) measured at rest by right heart catheterization (RHC). It includes a pre-capillary and a post-capillary form. Pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) is a pre-capillary form of PH potentially generated by several heterogeneous systemic disorders, whose main hemodynamic change is represented by severely increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). In order to preserve an efficient right ventricular-arterial (RV-PA) coupling, the right ventricle (RV) adapts to this chronic increase of its afterload, with a compensatory hypertrophy, until RV dilatation and dysfunction occur. Right ventricular (RV) function and especially RV-PA coupling assessment showed to be very important prognostic markers in this subset of patients, especially for those with pre-capillary PH. The aim of this review is to provide a pathophysiological insight into the spectrum of RV adaptive changes occurring in response to chronic increase of RV afterload and to present the role of echocardiographic parameters as possible tools for early non-invasive evaluation of RV-PA coupling, before overt heart failure ensues.
