Effect of intracoronary adenosine on ergonovine-induced vasoconstricted coronary arteries.
Article in Cardiology journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of adenosine on epicardial coronary artery diameter during ergonovine provocation testing.
methodsA total of 158 patients who underwent an ergonovine provocation test with intracoronary adenosine injection between 2011 and 2014 were selected. Patients were divided into four groups based on the severity of percent diameter stenosis following intracoronary ergonovine administration: Group 1, induced spasm < 50%; Group 2, 50-89%; Group 3, 90-99%; and Group 4, total occlusion.
resultsSpasm positivity was observed in 44 (27.8%) cases in the study population (mean age, 57.4 ± ± 10.7 years). Intracoronary adenosine increased the diameter of the ergonovine-induced epicardial artery by 0.51 ± 0.31 mm, 0.73 ± 0.39 mm, 0.44 ± 0.59 mm, and 0.01 ± 0.04 mm in Groups 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Subsequent administration of nitroglycerin further increased vessel diameter by 0.49 ± 0.28 mm, 0.93 ± 0.68 mm, 2.11 ± 1.25 mm, and 2.23 ± 0.69 mm in Groups 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The ratios of adenosine-induced diameter to reference diameter were significantly lower in patients with spasm positive results (0.68 [0.59-0.76] vs. 0.18 [0.00-0.41], p < 0.001 in the study population; 0.60 [0.54-0.67] vs. 0.40 [0.27-0.44], p < 0.001 in Group 2) with the best cut-off value of 0.505 (sensitivity 0.955, specificity 0.921).
conclusionsIntracoronary administration of adenosine dilated the ergonovine-induced vasoconstricted epicardial coronary artery. The ratio of adenosine-induced diameter to reference diameter was significantly lower in patients with spasm positive results.
