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

Severe diffusion impairment in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), particularly in idiopathic PAH (IPAH), has garnered considerable attention. However, comprehensive data on low diffusion capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) with preserved lung function remain limited in broader pulmonary hypertension (PH) cohorts. We analyzed patients with PH, preserved lung function, low DLCO, and available computed tomography (CT) scans. The analysis included 117 patients, with 34% cases of combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE), 22% IPAH, 15% interstitial lung disease (ILD), 9% pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD), and 8% connective tissue disease (CTD). Based on hemodynamic and CT imaging features, the overall population could be broadly categorized into two phenotypic patterns. "Parenchymal Type" (
