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

backgroundThe aim of the study was to assess soluble ST2 (sST2) concentration and its dynamic changes in the periprocedural period in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) treated with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA).

methodsWe prospectively analyzed 57 procedures of BPA performed in 37 patients with CTEPH. Biomarkers, such as N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), troponin T (TnT), and sST2 were assessed at four time points: Before the BPA procedure, 24 h and 48 h after the procedure, and at the discharge from hospital. Each postprocedural period was assessed for complications.

resultsBefore the BPA procedure, median sST2 concentration was 26.56 ng/mL (IQR: 16.66-40.83 ng/mL). sST2 concentration was significantly higher 24 h and 48 h after the BPA compared to the baseline measurements (33.31 ng/mL (IQR: 20.81-62.56),

conclusionssST2 concentration in patients with CTEPH treated with BPA changes significantly in the postprocedural period and is significantly higher in the group with complications in postprocedural period.
