Prospective clinical assessment of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension switched from bosentan to macitentan (POTENT).
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Even though pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) remains an incurable disease, the combination of PAH-specific therapies allowed evolving from symptom-based strategies to others aiming to move patients to low-risk conditions. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) receptor antagonists emerged as specific-PAH drugs that can be used in combination with other specific therapies. This work aimed to perform a prospective clinical assessment of patients with PAH that switched from bosentan to macitentan (POTENT), due to inadequate response. POTENT is a prospective, open-label, single-arm, uncontrolled study including PAH patients from our ongoing SAUDIPH registry. It enrolled 50 PAH patients divided as follows: idiopathic/heritable pulmonary arterial hypertension (I/HPAH);
