Long-term prognostic value of cardiac catheterization and acute vasodilator testing with inhaled iloprost in pediatric idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
To assess the long-term prognostic value of cardiac catheterization and acute vasodilator testing (AVT) with inhaled iloprost in children with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). Data on 81 consecutive children with IPAH referred to our center who underwent cardiac catheterization and AVT between June 2008 and August 2019 were collected. The correlation between the invasive hemodynamic data and transplant-free survival was analyzed. Twenty-four patients died and 1 underwent lung transplantation during a median follow-up of 3.8 years, with a 5-year transplant-free survival rate of 64.9%. Univariate analysis showed that predictors associated with improved survival included a lower pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI), PVRI/systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP)/mean systemic arterial pressure, mean right atrial pressure, and a higher cardiac index (CI), mixed systemic venous oxygen saturations (SvO
