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

Hepatopulmonary syndrome is a phenomenon that results in an intrapulmonary shunt leading to dyspnea and hypoxemia with poor response to oxygen supplementation. It is now an indication for liver transplantation; however, some transplants result in subsequent pulmonary hypertension. Postulated mechanisms include unmasking of underlying pulmonary hypertension with liver transplant and increased pulmonary vascular resistance due to increased blood flow in hepatopulmonary syndrome. In this case, we describe pulmonary hypertension developing after orthotopic liver transplant in a cirrhotic patient with hepatopulmonary syndrome.
