Macitentan Administration for Pulmonary Hypertension Due to β-thalassemia with Multiple Organ Failure.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 51-year-old Thai woman diagnosed with β-thalassemia underwent regular blood transfusion and iron-chelating therapy. However, after voluntarily discontinuing treatment, the patient developed progressive dyspnea and was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension following right heart catheterization. Despite resuming blood transfusions, her condition did not improve. Because the patient had a history of multiple organ failure, curative treatment for β-thalassemia was not feasible, and macitentan was administered. Despite experiencing hypotension as an adverse event, her condition remained stable during macitentan treatment. Thus, macitentan may be well tolerated in patients with pulmonary hypertension caused by β-thalassemia with multiple organ dysfunction.
