Myocardial viability by contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance in patients with coronary artery disease: comparison with gated single-photon emission tomography and FDG position emission tomography.
Article in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to assess the value of contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in viability for patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (ejection fraction [EF] </=50%), comparing to gated thallium-201 ((201)Tl) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). METHODS AND
resultsOne hundred sixteen patients (EF 37.8 +/- 16.2%) underwent stress-reinjection or rest-redistribution gated-SPECT and CMR (46 FDG-PET) within 1 month. All images were analyzed in a 17-segment and 0-4 scales system. Of 1972 segments, delayed enhancement (DE) on CMR correlated well with (201)Tl reduction (r = 0.90, p < 0.0001). The agreement of SPECT (>/=50% maximal (201)Tl activity) and CMR (</=50% DE) was 96.8% (kappa = 0.62). CMR detected more subendocardial scars in 18 subjects (60 segments). Reduced (201)Tl activity but none DE were observed in 19 subjects (76 segments; more inferior) who had lower EF and larger end-systolic volume (p < 0.05). Of 411 dysfunctional segments from 46 patients, FDG-PET (>/=50% of maximal FDG uptake) detected more viability (9%).
conclusionThe extent of DE correlated (201)Tl activity well. CMR could detect more small infarcts, while FDG-PET could detect more viability. CMR could distinguish between artifacts or infarction on SPECT, especially in poor LV function.
