The value of multi-slice-computed tomography coronary angiography for risk stratification.
Review in Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Multi-slice-computed tomography coronary angiography (CTA) provides direct non-invasive anatomic assessment of the coronary arteries allowing for early identification of coronary artery disease (CAD). This information is useful for diagnosis of CAD, particularly the rule out of CAD. In addition, early identification of CAD with CTA may also be useful for risk stratification. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the current literature on the prognostic value of CTA and to discuss how the prognostic information obtained with CTA can be used to further integrate the technique into clinical practice. Non-invasive anatomic assessment of plaque burden, location, composition, and remodeling using CTA may provide prognostically relevant information. This information has been shown to be incremental to the Framingham risk score, coronary artery calcium scoring, and myocardial perfusion imaging. Characterization of atherosclerosis non-invasively has the potential to provide important prognostic information enabling a more patient-tailored approach to disease management.Future studies assessing outcome after CTA-based risk adjustments are needed to further understand the value of detailed non-invasive anatomic imaging.
