Vasoreactive pulmonary artery hypertension in non-fibrotic hypersensitive pneumonitis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 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
Group III pulmonary hypertension (PH) is common in patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HSP). Group I PH and vasoreactivity in HSP have not been reported. We describe a case of an elderly veterinarian woman who presented with progressive shortness of breath and desaturation on exertion. The patient was diagnosed with non-fibrotic HSP after consistent findings on chest CT, transbronchial biopsy and a positive HSP serological panel. The patient relocated her birds, and prednisone was started. Due to persistent symptoms, she underwent a right heart catheterisation, which showed PH with vasoreactivity; subsequently, nifedipine was started. Over a 9-month follow-up, there was an improvement in symptoms and a complete resolution of PH and CT scan changes. Our case highlights the rare possibility of group I PH in HSP. It illustrates the importance of confirming the aetiology of PH and initiating treatment early to resolve symptoms.
