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

objectiveTo explore whether computed tomography (CT) pulmonary vascular volume ratio can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of pulmonary artery angioplasty in patients with peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis. MATERIALS AND

methodsChanges in CT pulmonary vascular volume ratio between serial cardiothoracic CT examinations were calculated in 38 patients. Fifteen patients underwent interim pulmonary artery angioplasty (group 1), while 23 did not (group 2). According to the effectiveness of pulmonary artery angioplasty, patients in group 1 were further divided into group 1A (improved or aggravated) and group 1B (ineffective). Changes in the pulmonary vascular volume percentages among the three groups (group 1A, group 1B, and group 2) on serial CT examinations were compared.

resultsPulmonary artery angioplasty on serial CT examinations was successful in seven patients, ineffective in seven patients, and aggravated in one patient. As a result, eight patients were included in group 1A and seven were included in group 1B. Changes in the CT pulmonary vascular volume percentages in group 1A were statistically significantly greater than those in group 1B (11.6 ± 5.6% vs. 2.7 ± 1.6%,

conclusionCT pulmonary vascular volume ratio can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of pulmonary artery angioplasty in patients with peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis.
