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

Advances in cardiovascular imaging have resulted in the development of multiple noninvasive techniques to evaluate myocardial perfusion and coronary anatomy, each of which has unique strengths and limitations. For example, CT angiography can directly visualize the presence of atherosclerosis, but the hemodynamic effect of many lesions identified by this technique is unknown. Alternatively, myocardial perfusion imaging enables a physiological assessment, but it may underestimate the extent of atherosclerosis in patients with multivessel disease. Dual-modality simultaneous imaging or multimodal sequential imaging techniques facilitate integration of information on both myocardial perfusion and coronary anatomy, and thus have the potential to improve diagnostic and prognostic evaluation, which could translate into improved care of patients. This Review discusses the strengths and limitations of the currently available individual noninvasive techniques for imaging coronary anatomy and myocardial perfusion. Approaches to integration of these imaging modalities are described, followed by an exploration of the clinical utility and future directions of hybrid imaging.
