Multi-modal and multi-postural assessment of platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome triggered by stroke: A case report.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) is a rare condition where patients suffer from dyspnea and reduced oxygenation while in the sitting position. A 69-year-old man initially experienced dyspnea and hypoxemia in the sitting position after developing hemiplegia and postural instability secondary to a cerebral hemorrhage, but the symptoms improved in the supine position. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a patent foramen ovale (PFO). In the sitting or semi-Fowler position, increased right-left shunt was observed using Swan-Ganz catheterization and pulmonary perfusion scintigraphy. The PFO closure was performed, which obliterated dyspnea and hypoxemia in the sitting position. In POS associated with PFO, comprehensive pre-operative evaluation using multi-modality tests in different postural settings critically delineates the etiology that guides appropriate treatment strategy. <
