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

Pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) is characterised by increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) resulting in elevated pressure in the pulmonary artery supplying the pulmonary circulation. Disease of the right ventricle (RV) often manifests as a result of PAH placing excessive pressure on the right side of the heart. Although a relatively rare disease in humans, the impact of sustained PAH is severe, with poor outcomes even in treated individuals. As PAH develops, the blood flow is restricted through the pulmonary arteries and the right ventricle hypertrophies due to the increased strain of pumping blood through the pulmonary circulation. With time, RV hypertrophy progresses to right heart failure, impacting the supply of blood to the left ventricle and systemic circulation. Although right heart failure can currently be treated, it cannot be cured. There is therefore a need for more research into the physiological changes that cause the heart to fail under pressure overload. This review aims to evaluate the monocrotaline (MCT) rat model of PAH as a means of studying the cellular mechanisms associated with the development of RV hypertrophy and right heart failure.
