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

Heart failure (HF), with its high morbidity and mortality, remains a global public health issue. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a sign of deterioration in the natural history of HF, and a thorough evaluation of the relationship between RV contractility and its afterload through RV-pulmonary arterial (RV-PA) coupling can aid in accurately assessing overall RV function. The ratio of RV end-systolic elastance (Ees) to pulmonary arterial elastance (Ea) invasively measured by right heart catheterization served as the gold standard for evaluating RV-PA coupling. An echocardiographic index termed tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion/pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP) has been shown to correlate well with Ees/Ea. TAPSE/PASP is recognized as a non-invasive surrogate of RV-PA coupling and has been extensively studied in patients with HF. This review briefly describes the methods of assessing RV-PA coupling, mainly discussing echocardiography, summarizes the clinical utility of TAPSE/PASP in patients with different HF types, and provides an overview of the available literature.
