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

objectiveTo determine whether the severity of pulmonary hypertension (PH), assessed at cardiac catheterization, is associated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) severity and mortality. STUDY

designWe analyzed clinical data from subjects with BPD-PH enrolled in the PPHNet Registry between 2014 and 2024. BPD severity was based on the Neonatal Research Network grading system at 36 weeks postmenstrual age. Survival and clinical associations were estimated using Cox proportional hazards regression with delayed entry-to-risk-set and competing risk methodologies.

resultsThe study included 320 subjects (gestational age, 25.8 ± 2.0 weeks (range 22.2 to 31.6 weeks); postnatal age 5.0 months (IQR 3.3, 8.6; range birth to 12 years) at the time of PH diagnosis. The severity of BPD was 27% (grade 1), 44% (grade 2), and 29% grade 3. Twenty-two percent (n = 69) of subjects underwent cardiac catheterization within 1 month of echocardiographic diagnosis of PH. Hemodynamic features by cardiac catheterization were similar between grades of BPD severity. Five-year survival postdiagnosis was 94%, 94%, and 87%, respectively, for Grades 1, 2, and 3 BPD. Twenty-five of 320 (8%) subjects died, including 6 with pulmonary vein stenosis.

conclusionsAmong subjects with BPD-PH undergoing cardiac catheterization, more deaths occurred among children with Grade 3 BPD. However, there were no substantive differences in invasive measurements of pulmonary hemodynamics based on BPD severity.
