Prognostic utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance upright maximal treadmill exercise testing.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular magnetic resonance : official journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
backgroundLeft ventricular wall motion abnormalities (LVWMA) observed during cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) pharmacologic stress testing can be used to determine cardiac prognosis, but currently, information regarding the prognostic utility of upright maximal treadmill induced LVWMA is unknown. Our objective was to determine the prognostic utility of upright maximal treadmill exercise stress CMR.
methodsOne hundred and fifteen (115) men and women with known or suspected coronary arteriosclerosis and an appropriate indication for cardiovascular (CV) imaging to supplement ST segment stress testing underwent an upright treadmill exercise CMR stress test in which LVWMA were identified before and immediately after exercise. Personnel blinded to results determined the post-test incidence of cardiac events (cardiac death, myocardial infarctions [MI], and unstable angina warranting hospital admission or coronary arterial revascularization).
resultsAll participants completed the testing protocol, with 90% completing image acquisition within 60 s of exercise cessation. MI or cardiac death occurred in 3% of individuals without and 17% of individuals with inducible LVWMA (p = 0.024). The combination of MI, cardiac death, and unstable angina warranting hospitalization occurred in 14% of individuals without and 47% of individuals with inducible LVWMA (p = 0.002). The addition of CMR imaging identified those at risk for future events (p = 0.002), as opposed to the electrocardiogram stress test alone (p = 0.63).
conclusionsIn patients with or suspected of coronary arteriosclerosis and appropriate indication for imaging to supplement ST segment analysis during upright treadmill exercise, the presence of inducible LVWMA during treadmill exercise stress CMR supplements ST segment monitoring and helps identify those at risk of the future combined endpoints of myocardial infarction, cardiac death, and unstable angina warranting hospitalization.
