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

objectiveBronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common complication of preterm birth and is associated with abnormal vasculature that contributes to pulmonary hypertension (PH). We evaluated how a tracheostomy may alter PH in these patients.

methodsA retrospective chart review over 15-years identified 17 patients with BPD and PH who underwent tracheostomy. Each patient had four echocardiograms re-reviewed and scored for tricuspid valve regurgitation velocity (TR), tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), right atrial cross-sectional area (RACA), and left ventricle eccentricity indices (EI).

resultThere was improvement in TR, TAPSE, RACA, and left ventricle EI indicating reduction in PH after tracheostomy.

conclusionPH improves over time though role of tracheostomy in PH needs to be further defined. The EI may be a sensitive marker to follow over time in these patients.
