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

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe complication of connective tissue disease (CTD) and is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among patients with this condition. To establish an expert-based consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of CTD-associated PAH, a multidisciplinary consensus development panel was established. The consensus panel is composed of 45 experts in rheumatology, cardiology, pulmonology, and radiology, most of whom are members of the Group of Pulmonary Vascular and Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD) Associated with Rheumatic Diseases. The consensus development panel compiled 9 recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of CTD-associated PAH. It covers screening, diagnosis, disease evaluation, risk assessment, the use of immunosuppressive agents, and PAH-specific therapy with a treat-to-target approach. The consensus is intended to facilitate decision-making and standardize the care of CTD-associated PAH in China.
