Beyond the right ventricle: assessment of the left ventricular function in pulmonary hypertension.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. 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
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a pathological condition characterized by elevated pressure in the pulmonary artery, often accompanied by right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. Nevertheless, the significance of left ventricular (LV) function in PH is being increasingly acknowledged, especially in the context of ventricular interdependence and the interactions between the ventricles. This review comprehensively examines the anatomical, physiological, and pathophysiological foundations of LV function assessment in patients with PH while summarizing advancements in evaluating LV function within this context. Specifically, the evaluation of LV diastolic function, systolic function, alterations in interventricular septal morphology, and the presence of ventricular dyssynchrony play crucial roles in the comprehensive understanding of left ventricular dynamics and differentiating pre-capillary PH from post-capillary PH. Despite the availability of various assessment parameters, limitations, including the lack of standardized criteria and insufficient specificity, continue to prevail. Future research should concentrate on developing specific indicators, establishing unified assessment standards, and integrating multimodal imaging techniques to evaluate LV function comprehensively, aiming to enhance prognosis and optimize treatment strategies for PH patients.
