Prognosis of stress-only SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging with prone imaging.
Article in Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundStress-only single-photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (SO SPECT MPI) is associated with similarly benign prognosis as stress-rest SPECT MPI. However, previous studies have used attenuation correction rather than prone imaging to increase the rate of SO studies.
objectivesTo assess the prognosis of SO SPECT MPI performed with prone imaging.
methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort analysis of all patients who underwent a Tc-99m gated SPECT MPI over a 58-month period.
resultsTwo thousand four hundred and sixty five patients were followed up. Of them, 1114 (45.2%) patients had a SO supine test, 388 (15.7%) underwent a SO supine and prone test, and the remaining 963 (39.1%) patients underwent a full stress-rest SPECT MPI. There was a similar annual mortality rate between the SO supine/prone group (1.3%), the SO supine (1.5%), and the stress-rest (1.5%) group (P = 0.47). Patients in the stress-rest group were significantly more likely to suffer from myocardial infarction (MI) as compared to the other two groups with an annual rate of 0.7% as compared to 0.4% (P = 0.049).
conclusionsNormal supine-prone SO SPECT MPI is associated with a similarly benign prognosis as stress-rest SPECT MPI. The adjunction of prone imaging to the stress supine significantly increases the rate of SO SPECT MPI.
