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

Despite developments in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, timely treatment is seldom achieved, and hidden progression is not uncommonly disguised as a seemingly "stable" condition. Appropriate risk assessment tools facilitate goal-oriented treatment strategies. This article aimed to review the development of these risk assessment tools including early assessment equations/scores, European guidelines-based risk assessment scores, and tools derived from the United States nationwide registry. A stepwise and regular approach with these assessment tools in clinical practice is highly recommended for timely treatment escalation to stop disease progression early. In this review, a practical and recommended algorithm of these assessment tools is also provided.
