Successful treatment of patent ductus arteriosus and severe pulmonary hypertension using sildenafil and beraprost sodium in two dogs.

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
Two dogs with patent ductus arteriosus and severe pulmonary hypertension were presented to our veterinary teaching hospital. In both dogs, sildenafil was initiated to treat pulmonary hypertension, and surgery was supposed to be scheduled after dose titration. Although no obvious improvement in pulmonary hypertension was observed, no dog had polycythaemia or an increased haematocrit level. The dogs underwent ductal occlusion, and treatment with beraprost sodium was subsequently initiated. Thereafter, severe pulmonary hypertension dramatically improved. No dog showed any clinical sign of right heart failure or adverse drug reaction postoperatively, thereby demonstrating the successful treatment of two dogs with patent ductus arteriosus and severe pulmonary hypertension, using sildenafil and beraprost sodium.
