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

backgroundTo explore potential systemic alterations in carbohydrate metabolism associated with advanced pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) using group-level PET-based metabolic connectivity mapping.

methodsThis retrospective, controlled study analysed

resultsStandard SUV analysis revealed no significant intergroup differences across most organs except for increased uptake in the right heart in PAH patients. MMD testing confirmed intra-group homogeneity in both controls (0,0048) and PAH (0,0465), with no rejection of H
