Sex differences in the long-term prognostic value of
Article in European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
purposeEvidence to date on the unique female determinants of cardiovascular risk is inadequate. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is considered to have the highest accuracy for the assessment of myocardial perfusion in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD), but its long-term prognostic accuracy in women has not been established.
methodsA total of 619 consecutive patients (138 women, mean age 60.0 ± 11.8 years) underwent clinically indicated
resultsDuring follow-up, 271 patients had at least one cardiac event, including 64 cardiac deaths and 33 nonfatal myocardial infarctions. In both women and men, abnormal myocardial perfusion was associated with reduced event-free survival (log rank p < 0.001). In women, abnormal myocardial perfusion was associated with a higher risk of a worse outcome than in men (adjusted HR 4.1, 95% CI 1.8-9.0 in women; HR 2.4, 95% CI 1.5-3.8 in men; p
