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 sympathetic nervous system has great influence on cardiovascular physiology. Cardiac neurotransmission single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging allows in vivo noninvasive assessment of presynaptic reuptake and storage of neurotransmitters, which offers characterization of the cardiac neuronal function in different diseases of the heart and other altered metabolic or functional conditions. Therefore assessment of the integrity of cardiac sympathetic innervation may help in the diagnosis of these disorders, as well as in prognostication, and will result in better therapy and outcome. At present, the most widely available SPECT tracer by which to assess cardiac neurotransmission is metaiodobenzylguanidine labeled with iodine 123. This article focuses on reviewing the characteristics of cardiac SPECT imaging with I-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine and its role in the assessment of pathophysiologic changes during relevant clinical conditions.
