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

introductionLeft ventricular dyssynchrony (LVD) quantified by gated myocardial perfusion studies (MPS), through phase analysis (PA), has shown controversial results in myocardial stunning.

objectivesAssessment of LVD and regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA) in normal and ischemic patients.

methodsA cohort of 172 patients were studied. Summed Stress Score (SSS), Summed Resting Score (SRS), and Summed Difference Score (SDS) were evaluated. Group 1-patients with normal MPS (N = 133) and Group 2-patients with myocardial ischemia in the MPS (N = 39). LVD was evaluated through PA and RWM by visual analysis.

resultsSSS 0 vs 9.8 ± 3.9 P = .0001; SDS 0 vs 9.8 ± 3.9 P = .0001; SRS 0 vs 0 P = NS, in G1 and G2. Significant differences were found in LVD between G1 and G2, bandwidth 36 ± 14 vs 63 ± 46 P = .0001; standard deviation 16 ± 10 vs 26 ± 15 P = .0001. In G1, 16% had LVD vs RWMA in 0%, P = .0001 and in G2, 59% with LVD vs 33% with RWMA, P = .03. Sensitivity for LVD 59% and for RWMA 33%, P = .03 and specificity for LVD 83% and for RWMA 100%, P = .0001.

conclusionIschemic patients have LVD post-stress due to myocardial stunning. LVD measured by PA could be a useful tool to identify ischemia.
