Escalating Oral Treprostinil Dose With Intravenous Treprostinil Bridging Therapy.
Article in Cureus, 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
Oral treprostinil, approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, remains an attractive option in combination with other medications to delay disease progression and improve exercise capacity. However, patients are often challenged with the ability to overcome adverse effects as outpatients and reach effective doses in a timely manner. We describe a case of a 47-year-old female on oral treprostinil who presented to the clinic with worsening symptoms of disease, necessitating higher dosing. This patient was previously uptitrated outpatient with oral treprostinil, which had allowed her to remain stable for years. Once uptitrated with additional intravenous therapy, the oral treprostinil dose was gradually further increased to the new goal dosage, resulting in improvements in symptoms and right ventricular function. This case highlights the versatility of dose optimization of oral treprostinil with rapid bridging through intravenous therapy.
