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

A solid-state cadmium zinc tellurium (CZT) dedicated multipinhole cardiac camera which acquires all views simultaneously has been introduced for myocardial SPECT acquisition. We report a method to detect and ameliorate patient motion artifacts in myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) studies recorded with this device. To detect motion, a myocardial phantom study was recorded, and at mid-scan, the phantom was moved stepwise along each of 6 orthogonal directions, causing MPI artifacts. Using QPS software (Cedars-Sinai) and an in-house normal database, displacements giving artifactual perfusion defects (total perfusion deficit score, TPD, >5 %) were all 1.5 cm or greater (11.2 ± 1.3 % for 1.5 cm). List mode data were reframed into 10-s steps, and the norm of the changes in center of mass among the 19 projections (32 × 32 matrix, pixel size 2.46 mm) was used as a motion index. Rejection of misregistered data gave artifact-free reconstructions (TPD = 1.0 ± 0.8 %) in phantom scans and reduced blur in a rest/stress clinical study. Blur on the patient's stress scan was consistent with increased motion compared to rest (motion index of 4.4 vs. 3.0 pixels, respectively). For CZT cameras that acquire data from multiple views simultaneously, motion during MPI can cause clinically significant artifacts. Reframing acquisitions into discrete time intervals enables the detection of motion and its amelioration, improving diagnostic accuracy.
