Significant deviation between reported wedge pressure and diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure found during right heart catheterization in patients undergoing cardiac transplant evaluation.

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
objectivesDiastolic pulmonary arterial pressure should be the same as wedge pressure in patients with cardiomyopathy without a known history of pulmonary vein occlusive disease. The goal of this study was to study the correlation between reported wedge pressure and pulmonary arterial diastolic pressure in patients with end-stage cardiomyopathy to evaluate the accuracy of right heart pressure reporting.
methodsPre-cardiac transplant patients who underwent cardiac catheterization before their heart transplantation at our institution between 2003 and 2005 (n = 159) were retrospectively reviewed. Reported diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure was correlated with reported wedge pressure.
resultsThe correlation between reported diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure with wedge pressure was modest with r
conclusionsAmong patients referred for heart transplant evaluation, a correlation between reported diastolic pulmonary pressure and wedge pressure is only modest suggesting a significant error in the reporting or measuring right-sided pressures during right heart catheterization warranting further investigation to reduce errors.
