Pulmonary arterial hypertension related to congenital heart disease with a left-to-right shunt: phenotypic spectrum and approach to management.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with a left-right shunt include a wide spectrum of pathophysiological substrates, ranging from those characterized by pulmonary over-circulation to those with advanced pulmonary vascular disease. The former group may benefit from shunt repair in carefully selected cases but, when advanced pulmonary vascular disease has developed, defect closure should be avoided, and pulmonary vasodilators may be used to improve effort tolerance and hemodynamics. There is a paucity of evidence, however, to support decision-making in the care of these patients. We discuss the principles of management in patients with pulmonary hypertension and a predominant left-right shunt. The recommendations and statements made in this paper are based on pathophysiological considerations and expert opinion.
