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

Until recently, the molecular aetiology of paediatric pulmonary hypertension (PH) was relatively poorly understood. While the TGF-β/BMP pathway was recognised as central to disease progression, genetic analyses in children were largely confined to targeted screening of risk genes in small cohorts, with clinical management extrapolated from adult data. In recent years, next-generation sequencing has highlighted notable differences in the genetic architecture underlying childhood-onset cases, with a higher genetic burden in children partly explained by comorbidities such as congenital heart disease. Here, we review recent genetic advances in paediatric PH and highlight important risk factors such as dysregulation of the transcription factors SOX17 and TBX4. Given the poorer prognosis in paediatric cases, molecular diagnosis offers a vital tool to enhance clinical care of children with PH.
