Causes and outcomes of ICU hospitalisations in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Article in ERJ open research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Rationale: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease characterised by limited survival despite remarkable improvements in therapy. The causes, clinical burden and outcomes of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) remain poorly characterised. The aim of this study was to describe patient characteristics, causes of ICU hospitalisation, and risk factors for ICU and 1-year mortality. Methods: Data from patients enrolled in the Johns Hopkins Pulmonary Hypertension Registry were analysed for the period between January 2010 and December 2020. Clinical, functional, haemodynamic and laboratory data were collected. Measurements and main results: 102 adult patients with 155 consecutive ICU hospitalisations were included. The leading causes for admission were right heart failure (RHF, 53.3%), infection (17.4%) and arrhythmia (11.0%). ICU mortality was 27.1%. Mortality risk factors included Na <136 mEq·mL Conclusions: RHF is the most common cause for ICU admission. In-hospital and 1-year mortality remain exceedingly high despite improved ICU care. Recognising specific risk factors on admission can help identifying patients at risk for poor outcomes.
