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

Guidelines recommend risk stratification of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients to guide management. There are currently several risk stratification scores available, which have largely been validated in various pulmonary hypertension registries in the West but not in Asia. We aim to study the performance of these different risk scores in PAH patients from a multi-ethnic Asian population. A retrospective review of all PAH patients from Jan 2014 to Jun 2021 from a tertiary cardiac center was performed. Mortality outcomes were obtained from national registries. Using the 2022 ESC/ERS, REVEAL Lite 2.0 and COMPERA 2.0 risk scores, patients were classified into different risk strata at baseline and at follow-up and changes in any risk strata recorded. The prognosis of patients based on these factors was compared. A total of 153 patients (mean age: 57 ± 17 years; 117 women; 94 Chinese, 33 Malay, 19 Indian) were included. All three scores showed significant difference in mortality outcomes between the different risk strata both at baseline and at follow-up (
