Omics and Extreme Phenotyping Reveal Longitudinal Association Between Left Atrial Size and Pulmonary Vascular Resistance in Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundLeft heart disease is the most common cause of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and is frequently accompanied by increases in pulmonary vascular resistance. However, the distinction between phenotypes of PH due to left heart disease with a normal or elevated pulmonary vascular resistance-isolated postcapillary PH (IpcPH) and combined pre- and postcapillary PH (CpcPH), respectively-has been incompletely defined using unbiased methods. METHODS AND
resultsPatients with extremes of IpcPH versus CpcPH were identified from a single-center record of those who underwent right heart catheterization. Individuals with left ventricular ejection fraction <40% or with potential causes of PH beyond left heart disease were excluded. Medication usage in IpcPH and CpcPH was compared across Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classes and identified vitamin K antagonists as the only medication with pharmacome-wide significance, being more commonly used in CpcPH and for an indication of atrial fibrillation in ≈90% of instances. Accordingly, atrial fibrillation prevalence was significantly higher in CpcPH in a phenome-wide analysis. Review of echocardiographic data most proximal to right heart catheterization revealed that left atrial diameter indexed to body surface area-known to be associated with atrial fibrillation-was increased in CpcPH regardless of the presence of atrial fibrillation. An independent cohort with serial right heart catheterizations and PH-left heart disease showed a significant positive correlation between change in left atrial diameter indexed to body surface area and change in pulmonary vascular resistance.
conclusionsGuided by pharmacomic and phenomic screens in a rigorously phenotyped cohort, we identify a longitudinal association between left atrial diameter indexed to body surface area and pulmonary vascular resistance with implications for the future development of diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic tools.
