Review in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07647549 (Pulmonary Hypertension), which is not on this map. Cited by 118 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

The definition of pulmonary hypertension (PH) has changed recently based, in part, on contemporary outcome data and to focus on early disease detection. Now, PH includes patients with mean pulmonary artery pressure >20 mm Hg measured by right heart catheterization. In contrast to the classical era, pulmonary vascular resistance >2.0 Wood units is also used for diagnosis and prognostication. These lowered thresholds aim to identify patients early in the disease course, which is important because delay to diagnosis of PH is common and linked to elevated morbidity and shortened lifespan. This clinical primer highlights key changes in diagnosis and approach to PH management, focusing on concepts that are likely to be encountered frequently in general practice. Specifically, this includes hemodynamic assessment of at-risk patients, pharmacotherapeutic management of pulmonary arterial hypertension, approach to PH in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, and newly established indications for early referral to PH centers to prompt comanagement of patients with pulmonary vascular disease experts.
