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

Imaging with radionuclides has historically played an important role in detection of cardiovascular disease as well as in risk stratification and prognostication. With the growth of molecular biology have come new therapeutic interventions and the requirement for new diagnostic imaging approaches. Noninvasive targeted radiotracer-based strategies require the development of new instrumentation to meet these needs. This progress has been made possible with the availability of many technologic advances, which include dedicated micro single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and micro positron emission tomography (PET) hybrid systems for small animal imaging. This review is a brief overview on the subject of molecular imaging. Basic concepts of molecular imaging are reviewed, followed by description of current technologic advances, and current applications to evaluate ischemic heart disease and potential therapeutic intervention. The emphasis is on the use of both SPECT and PET radiotracers, although other imaging modalities are also briefly discussed.
