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

Key Clinical Message: Before valvular interventions, echocardiography, especially the TEE or the ventilation/perfusion scan, should be performed to detect silent PTE and set a more accurate treatment and surgical plan. Abstract: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive and critical disease that can be caused by mitral stenosis (MS). Some of these patients present with disproportionate PH, which is an uncommon phenomenon and is considered a challenging diagnostic and treatment process. In these patients, other causes may also play a role in developing PH. This report presented two cases with disproportionate PH and severe MS who were scheduled for percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty (PMV). The pre-procedural echocardiography revealed systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) of 90 and 120 mmHg, mitral valve area of 0.80 and 0.55 cm
