Impact of achieving euthyroidism on pulmonary artery systolic pressures in hyperthyroidism-associated pulmonary hypertension - a systematic review.
Article in American journal of cardiovascular disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In this systematic review, we seek to clarify the impact of treatment of hyperthyroidism on pulmonary hypertension in patients with both these conditions. We included 39 of 709 articles retrieved, that studied patients with hyperthyroidism and pulmonary hypertension (PH). From these, those with a documented pre-treatment Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure (PASP) > 35 mmHg and complete follow up were analyzed, yielding 3 case series and 22 case reports with a total of 81 cases. A significant improvement in PASP was noted with achieving euthyroidism in the 3 case series. The case reports showed a significant reduction in mean PASP from 60.5 ± 13.2 mmHg to 37.5 ± 10.1 mmHg (p < 0.001) in patients with Grave's disease with achieving euthyroidism. No deaths were reported during the follow up period. Achievement of a euthyroid state in patients with hyperthyroidism is associated with statistically significant reductions in PASP.
