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

backgroundWe present a case of uncontrolled hyperthyroidism during pregnancy associated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and pulmonary hypertension (pHTN). CASE SUMMARY: A 32-year-old woman at 22 weeks' gestation was nonadherent to hyperthyroid medications. She presented with shortness of breath and was found to have pHTN on transthoracic echocardiography. Right heart catheterization revealed post-capillary pHTN, an elevated pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (33 mm Hg), and high cardiac output, consistent with group 5 pHTN. She was managed with antithyroid medications, corticosteroids, and aggressive diuresis, and she continued the pregnancy. DISCUSSION: Pulmonary arterial hypertension is associated with right heart failure and is currently classified as modified World Health Organization class IV (pregnancy contraindicated). However, group 5 pHTN may be managed safely during pregnancy. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: This case highlights that group 5 pHTN has a different cardiac risk profile compared with group 1 pulmonary arterial hypertension, and right heart catheterization was instrumental in stratifying this risk and counseling the patient.
