Cardiac PET, CT, and MR: what are the advantages of hybrid imaging?
Article in Current cardiology reports, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cardiac hybrid imaging combines different imaging modalities in a way where both modalities equally contribute to image information. Hybrid positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging is a promising tool for evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) because it enables detection of coronary atherosclerotic lesions by CT angiography and their consequences on myocardial blood flow by PET perfusion in a single study. This appears to offer superior diagnostic accuracy in patients with intermediate risk for CAD compared with stand-alone imaging. Novel, commercially available hybrid scanners containing PET and magnetic resonance as well as development of targeted probes to evaluate molecular and cellular disease mechanisms are expected to provide many new applications for cardiac hybrid imaging. This article focuses on the advantages of cardiac hybrid imaging in the detection of CAD in light of currently available clinical data and discusses the potential future applications.
