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

With the recent advent of PET/MRI scanners, the combination of molecular imaging with a variety of known and novel PET radiotracers, the high spatial resolution of MRI, and its potential for multi-parametric imaging are anticipated to increase the diagnostic accuracy in cardiovascular disease detection, while providing novel mechanistic insights into the initiation and progression of the disease state. For the time being, cardiac PET/MRI emerges as potential clinical tool in the identification and characterization of infiltrative cardiac diseases, such as sarcoidosis, acute or chronic myocarditis, and cardiac tumors, respectively. The application of PET/MRI in conjunction with various radiotracer probes in the identification of the vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque also holds much promise but needs further translation and validation in clinical investigations. The combination of molecular imaging and creation of multi-parametric imaging maps with PET/MRI, however, are likely to set new horizons to develop predictive parameters for myocardial recovery and treatment response in ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy patients. Molecular imaging and multi-parametric imaging in cardiovascular disease with PET/MRI at current stage are at its infancy but bear a bright future.
