Right Heart Evaluation: A Tough Challenge for Clinicians.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
The right heart-pulmonary circulation unit (RH-PCU) constitutes an integrated anatomo-functional system characterized by high-volume blood flow, low intravascular pressure, and minimal pulmonary vascular resistance. The RH-PCU dysfunction is a challenge for clinicians, as it can result from numerous pathological conditions, each with different clinical presentations. The pathophysiological changes underlying the hemodynamic alterations in the pressure and volume affecting the right ventricle can lead the patient to present with the primary symptom: dyspnea. We review the clinical presentation, the laboratory test, and the role of multimodality imaging in the evaluation of the disfunction of the RHPCU, including echocardiography, stress echocardiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear imaging, and invasive pressure measurement through catheterization. We therefore aimed to describe the various diagnostic options available to clinicians, evaluating their effectiveness and limitations of use.
