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 characterized by elevated pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP). Although right-heart catheterization is the gold standard method for the diagnosis of PH by definition, various less-invasive imaging tests have been used for screening, detection of underlying diseases-causing PH, and monitoring of diseases. Among them, 4D flow MRI is an emerging and unique imaging test that allows for comprehensive visualization of blood flow in the right heart and proximal pulmonary arteries. The characteristic blood flow pattern observed in patients with PH is vortical flow formation in the main pulmonary artery. Recent studies have proposed the use of these findings to determine not only the presence of PH but also estimate the mean PAP. Other applications of 4D flow MRI for PH include measurement of wall shear stress, helicity, and 3D flow balance in the pulmonary arteries. It is worth noting that 4D flow has also the potential for longitudinal follow-ups. In this review, the clinical definition of PH, summary of conventional imaging tests, characteristics of pulmonary arterial flow as shown by 4D flow MRI, and clinical application of 4D flow MRI in the management of patients with PH will be discussed.
