Surgical and Device Interventions in the Treatment of Chronic Thromboembolic Disease.
Review in Pulmonary therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) is characterized by unresolved clot burden in large pulmonary arteries, obstructive disease in smaller arteries, and increased downstream clot burden. This occurs in the setting of abnormal fibrinolysis or hematological disorders. Up to 50% of patients in some studies are unaware of a self-history of a deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. Ultimately, they present with symptoms of pulmonary hypertension (PH), which can result in right heart failure (RHF). Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is curative, though many patients have prohibitive surgical risk or surgically inaccessible disease, warranting other interventions such as balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) and medical therapy. Rarely, other treatment options may be implemented. We focus this review on PEA and BPA, with an overview of the history of CTEPD and the evolution of these procedures. We will briefly discuss other treatment modalities.
