Examining prevalence and predictors of pulmonary hypertension in adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a population-based analysis in the United States.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) often complicates idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a progressive parenchymal lung disease. We investigated predictors of PH in IPF hospitalizations in the United States. We identified IPF hospital- izations with or without PH using the National Inpatient Sample (2018) and relevant ICD-10-CM codes. We com- pared demographics, comorbidities, PH prevalence, and its multivariable predictors adjusted for confounders among patients with IPF. In 2018, 30,335 patients from 30,259,863 hospitalizations had IPF, of which 8,075 (26.6%) had PH. Black (41%), Hispanic (21.3%), and female (28.7%) patients had higher rates of PH compared to white patients (25%). The IPF-PH cohort was hospitalized more often in urban teaching (77.7% vs. 72.2%), Midwest, and West hospitals vs. non-PH cohort. Comorbidities including congestive heart failure (2.08 [1.81-2.39]), valvular disease (2.12 [1.74-2.58]), rheumatoid arthritis/collagen vascular disease (1.32 [1.08-1.61]) predicted higher odds of PH. The PH-IPF cohort was less often routinely discharged (35.4%) and more likely to be transferred to intermediate care facilities (22.6%) and home health care (27.1%) (
