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 arterial hypertension (PAH) is a complex and progressive disease characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure and vascular remodeling. Recent studies have underscored the pivotal role of metabolic dysregulation and epigenetic modifications in the pathogenesis of PAH. Lactate, a byproduct of glycolysis, is now recognized as a key molecule that links cellular metabolism with activity regulation. Recent findings indicate that, in addition to altered glycolytic activity and dysregulated. Lactate homeostasis and lactylation-a novel epigenetic modification-also play a significant role in the development of PAH. This review synthesizes current knowledge regarding the relationship between altered glycolytic activity and PAH, with a particular focus on the cumulative effects of lactate in pulmonary vascular cells. Furthermore, lactylation, an emerging epigenetic modification, is discussed in the context of PAH. By elucidating the complex interplay between lactate metabolism and lactylation in PAH, this review aims to provide insights into potential therapeutic targets. Understanding these metabolic pathways may lead to innovative strategies for managing PAH and improving patient outcomes. Future research should focus on the underlying mechanisms through which lactylation influences the pathophysiology of PAH, thereby aiding in the development of targeted interventions.
