Observational study in Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to determine whether right ventricle (RV)
methods70 consecutive patients with clinically diagnosed CS who had undergone FDG PET were registered in the present study. Patients without EMB (n = 42) were excluded. Ultimately, 28 patients were studied. EMB samples were obtained from the RV septum. We evaluated the FDG uptake on six segments (RV, left ventricle anterior, septal, lateral, inferior, and apex).
resultsPositive EMB was found in six patients (21%). Patients were divided into two groups according to positive (n = 12 [43%]) or negative (n = 16 [57%]) RV FDG uptake. Patients with positive RV FDG uptake had a significantly higher frequency of positive EMB than those without (42% vs. 6%, P = 0.024). On the other hand, there was no EMB-predictive value for the FDG uptakes in the other five segments, the cardiac metabolic volume, total lesion glycolysis, left ventricular ejection fraction, or any electrocardiogram findings.
conclusionsFDG uptake of the RV but no other heart segment was associated with positive EMB in CS patients. The presence of RV FDG uptake could improve the rate of positive EMB up to 42% in patients with CS.
