Importance of age at diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension in children living at high altitude: Longitudinal follow-up of 86 patients.

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) at high altitudes presents unique characteristics due to hypobaric hypoxia. We aimed to evaluate the association between early diagnosis and clinical outcomes among children with severe PH living at high altitudes. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 86 children, divided into three age groups at the time of diagnosis: ≤3, 3-10, and ≥10 years. The median age at diagnosis was 4 years, with 48% of patients under 3 years old. Over a median follow-up of 6 years (interquartile ranges 2.5-8), 10% had a follow-up exceeding 15 years. Mortality rates were lowest in those diagnosed before age 3 (22% vs. 48% vs. 25%,
