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

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of body composition on the risk of portopulmonary hypertension using computed tomography (CT) in patients with liver cirrhosis. We retrospectively included 148 patients with cirrhosis treated at our hospital between March 2012 and December 2020. POPH high-risk was defined as main pulmonary artery diameter (mPA-D) ≥ 29 mm or mPA-D to ascending aorta diameter ratio ≥ 1.0, based on chest CT. Body composition was assessed using CT images of the third lumbar vertebra. The factors associated with POPH high-risk were evaluated using logistic regression and decision tree analyses, respectively. Among the 148 patients, 50% were females, and 31% were found to be high-risk cases on evaluation of chest CT images. Patients with a body mass index (BMI) of ≥25 mg/m
