Pulmonary Veno-Occlusive Disease: A Comprehensive Review of Diagnostic Challenges, Therapeutic Limitations, and Evolving Management.
Review in Advances in respiratory medicine, 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
Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) is a rare and under-recognized cause of pulmonary hypertension. It is characterized by fibrotic obstruction of small pulmonary veins and venules. Its clinical presentation closely mimics pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), leading to frequent misdiagnosis, delayed recognition, and potentially harmful exposure to PAH-specific vasodilator therapy. This review aims to synthesize our evolving understanding of PVOD, discussing its etiologies, role of genetic underpinnings, histopathologic features, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and characteristic imaging findings. It then discusses management strategies emphasizing early recognition, supportive care, avoidance of inappropriate PAH therapies due to poor response, and timely referral for lung transplantation. Despite advances in identification and management, PVOD remains a fatal condition with a median survival of less than two years, underscoring the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary care.
