Real-World Comparison of Patients With PH-ILD Initiating Inhaled Treprostinil Versus Patients Who Remain Untreated.
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pulmonary hypertension due to interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Real-world patients initiating inhaled treprostinil are not well-characterized. This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate healthcare resource utilization in patients with PH-ILD who initiated treatment with inhaled treprostinil vs patients who remained untreated. Adult patients diagnosed with PH-ILD were indexed on initiation of inhaled treprostinil and patients who remained untreated were indexed on first observed PH diagnosis (31 March 2021-30 September 2024). Patients were excluded if they were ever treated with any pulmonary arterial hypertension therapy. Inhaled treprostinil patients were matched to up to four untreated patients. All-cause per-patient per-month (PPPM) hospitalizations and ICU-related hospitalizations were the primary outcomes of interest. 294 patients treated with inhaled treprostinil and 736 untreated patients were identified. Mean all-cause PPPM hospitalizations remained unchanged in the pre-index vs post-index periods in the inhaled treprostinil cohort (0.11 vs 0.12;
