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

Right ventricular (RV) mechanical dyssynchrony represents a maladaptive response to increased afterload in pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, its hemodynamic and biochemical determinants remain unclear. This study aimed to identify the clinical, hemodynamic, and biochemical correlates of RV dyssynchrony in patients with pre-capillary PH. Thirty patients with pre-capillary PH (83% female; age 56 ± 19 years), all without intraventricular conduction delay (QRS < 120 ms), underwent right heart catheterization, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography. RV dyssynchrony was quantified using the coefficient of variation of time-to-peak systolic strain in four mid-basal RV segments (RV-CV4) adjusted for heart rate. Mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP), pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), and RV-CV4 averaged 34.1 ± 11.2 mmHg, 522.3 (interquartile range, 289.4-692.6) dyn·s·cm
