Non-invasive surrogates for right Ventricular-Pulmonary arterial coupling: a systematic review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Right ventricle-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling describes the energetic relationship between RV contractility and its afterload. The gold standard for assessment of this relationship requires invasive pressure-volume (PV) loop measurements. Non-invasive surrogates of RV-PA coupling have been developed, such as the echocardiographic tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure ratio (TAPSE/PASP), but their performance has not been systematically assessed. We sought to assess performance of TAPSE/PASP ratio compared to PV loop-defined RV-PA coupling. A systematic search was conducted. Studies were included if PV loop derived RV-PA coupling metrics were compared to echocardiographic or magnetic resonance imaging surrogates. We conducted a meta-analysis of TAPSE/PASP correlation to PV loop-defined RV-PA coupling. 1452 studies were identified in the initial search, of which ten met inclusion criteria. Five studies allowed for pooled analysis of TAPSE/PASP to Ees/Ea correlation (
