Factors determining change in treatment for ambulatory children with pulmonary arterial hypertension: Implications for monitoring.

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
While care models adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic with virtual and hybrid visits, clinical factors associated with treatment changes among ambulatory pediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients are not well characterized. To understand which data critically altered treatment recommendations, we conducted a retrospective review among ambulatory children with Group 1 PAH to determine optimal visit and diagnostic strategies. Changes in management included: unplanned new treatments, dose modifications of vasodilators or diuretics, unscheduled hospitalizations, or changes to activity recommendations, catheterization schedule, or other testing. Factors prompting management changes were classified as symptoms, exam findings, or diagnostic tests. Across 398 ambulatory visits by 48 patients, 38 patients (79%) at 88 visits (22%) required change in management, most commonly in targeted PH medication. Changes were driven by symptoms alone (15%), diagnostic testing alone (47%), exam only (2%), symptoms and exam (2%), combination of testing and symptoms or testing and exam (25%), and other reasons (9%). Patients with World Health Organization functional Class IV (odds ratio [OR] 9.04 vs. Class I,
