Impact of borderline pulmonary hypertension due to left heart failure on mortality in a multicenter registry study: A 3-year survivorship analysis.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
Background: Patients with left heart failure (LHF) are often associated with the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH) which leads to an increased risk of death. Recently, the diagnostic standard for PH has changed from mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) ≥25 mmHg to >20 mmHg. Nonetheless, the effect of borderline PH (mPAP: 21-24 mmHg) on the prognosis of LHF patients is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between borderline PH and 3-year clinical outcomes in LHF patients. Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospective cohort study was done for LHF patients who underwent right heart catheterization (RHC) between January 2013 and November 2016. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality; the secondary outcome was rehospitalization. Results: Among 344 patients, 62.5% were identified with a proportion of PH (mPAP ≥ 25), 10.8% with borderline PH (21-24), and 26.7% with non-PH (≤20), respectively. Multivariable Cox analysis revealed that borderline PH patients had a higher adjusted mortality risk (HR = 3.822; 95% CI: 1.043-13.999; Conclusions: Borderline PH is independently related to increased 3-year mortality in LHF patients. Future research is needed to evaluate whether more close monitoring, and managing with an intensifier improves clinical outcomes in borderline PH caused by LHF.
