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

backgroundThere are paucity of data comparing measurements of left ventricular systolic performance using cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) semiconductor cameras with other imaging modalities. This study compared the new system with echocardiography (echo) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.

methods60 Patients presenting with ST-elevated myocardial infarction (MI) were included. Each patient underwent echo, myocardial perfusion imaging using Spectrum Dynamics D-SPECT(r) (CZT-SPECT), and CMR 6 weeks after MI. The primary endpoint was the agreement between CZT-SPECT and CMR for left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) measurement.

results48 of the 60 patients underwent all 3 studies (echo, CMR, and CZT-SPECT) 40 days after admission. CZT-SPECT and CMR LVEF were well correlated (r = .79, P < .0001), as well as CZT-SPECT vs echo and CMR vs echo (r = .79 and .84, respectively, P < .0001). The segmental LV wall thickening and wall motion also showed good concordance between three techniques.

conclusionsCZT-SPECT is reliable for LVEF measurement.
