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

The nuclear cardiology of the future will be based on new clinical and biologic targets. It will be driven by modern concepts of molecular and cell biology and molecular genetics. A major effort involves detection of atherosclerosis and vascular vulnerability. Approaches include targeting proliferating smooth muscle cells, angiogenesis, vascular injury, inflammation through a variety of mechanisms, defining cell death and protease activation, and imaging gene expression. Another new clinical target involves imaging stem cells and various progenitor cells. To meet these new objectives, advanced imaging technology is required. This involves the development of micro-single photon emission computed tomography and micro-positron emission tomography systems as well as fusion technology involving radiologic computed tomography imaging together with nuclear imaging. Vascular lesion detection imaging may require intravascular detectors. The future of nuclear cardiology, based on molecular imaging, is extraordinarily exciting. The newly defined biologic targets will allow the answering of many of the key clinical questions that will dominate cardiovascular care in cardiovascular investigation over the next decade.
