Observational study in BMC research notes, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between PET/CT CFR and biomarkers combined in confirming the diagnosis of coronary microvascular dysfunction.
resultsA total of 28 patients (21 males and 7 females) were included in this descriptive observational study (both qualitative and quantitative). The mean patient age was 55.50 ± 10.21 years (range 27-70 years) and the median was 56.5 years (range 49-63 years). All patients underwent Echo, CAG and PET/CT scan. Chest tightness was the most common symptom in our study. Most patients had normal blood pressure (n = 18, 64.3%) while only (n = 10, 37.5%) had hypertension, and (n = 1, 3.6%) had diabetes mellitus. The mean HDL in CMVD (n = 25) and non-CMVD (n = 3) were 1.30 ± 0.39 and 1.08 ± 0.95, respectively, indicating that the difference between the groups was statistically significant (p = 0.04). Similarly, the mean HBA1c- (glycated haemoglobin) in CMVD (n = 25) and non-CMVD (n = 3) were 5.6 ± 0.53 and 5.0 ± 0.26, respectively, with (p = 0.03). Our findings managed to show the association between biomarkers and PET/CT CFR in confirming the diagnosis of coronary microvascular dysfunction.
