Use of Echocardiography Under Hypoxic Stress Without Exercise to Assess Right to Left Shunting.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Acute exposure to hypoxia will induce right ventricular (RV) hemodynamic changes and may increase the degree of right-to-left shunting, which can contribute to dyspnea at altitude. In this retrospective study, 125 patients (median age 66 years; 50.4% women) with unexplained dyspnea at altitude underwent hypoxic simulation testing (HST) with transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). During simulated hypoxia (mode (Min-Max) altitude: 8000 (6000-18,000) ft, were observed a significant decrease in oxygen saturation (97% (95-98) vs. 88% (82-92),
