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

Patients with sickle cell disease are at risk of vaso-occlusive crises including acute chest syndrome (ACS) and pulmonary hypertension. ACS is a life-threatening complication of sickle cell disease and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is known that pulmonary pressures increase during episodes of acute chest syndrome and may lead to acute right ventricular failure leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Given the paucity of randomized controlled trials, the management of ACS and pulmonary hypertension in the setting of a sickle cell crisis largely relies on expert opinion. We present a case of acute chest syndrome complicated by acute right ventricular failure that was managed with prompt red cell exchange transfusion with favorable clinical outcomes.
