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

purposeThe purpose of this study is to evaluate left ventricular functional parameters in healthy mice and in different murine models of cardiomyopathy with the novel blood pool (BP) positron emission tomography (PET) tracer [68Ga]-albumin. PROCEDURES: ECG-gated microPET examinations were obtained in healthy mice, and mice with dilative (DCM) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) using the novel BP tracer [68Ga]-albumin (AlbBP), as well as [18F]-FDG microPET. Cine-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination performed on a clinical 1.5-T MRI provided the reference standard measurements.

resultsWhen considering the combined group of healthy controls, DCM and ICM AlbBP-PET significantly overestimated the magnitudes of EDV (AlbBP, 181±86 μl; cine-MRI, 125±80 μl; P<0.001) and ESV (AlbBP, 136±92 μl; cine-MRI, 96±77 μl; P<0.001), whereas the EF (AlbBP, 31±16%; cine-MRI, 33±21%; P=0.910) matched closely to cine-MRI results, as did findings with [18F]-FDG. High correlations were found between the measured cardiac parameters (EDV: R=0.978, ESV: R=0.989, and LVEF: R=0.992).

conclusionsMeasuring left ventricular function in mice with [68Ga]-albumin BP PET is feasible and showed a high correlation compared to cine-MRI, which was used as a reference standard.
