Additional diagnostic value of new CT imaging techniques for the functional assessment of coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in European radiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
objectivesTo determine the diagnostic performance of cardiac computed tomography (CT)-based modalities including coronary CT angiography (CTA), stress myocardial CT perfusion (stress CTP), computer simulation of fractional flow reserve by CT (FFR
methodsPubMed and Cochrane databases were searched for original articles until July 2018. Diagnostic accuracy results were pooled at per-patient and per-vessel level using random effect models.
resultsFifty articles were included in the meta-analysis (3024 subjects). The per-patient analysis per imaging modality demonstrated a pooled positive likelihood ratio (PLR) of 1.78 (95% confidence interval CI 1.49-2.11), 4.58 (95% CI 3.54-5.91), and 3.45 (95% CI 2.38-5.00) for CTA, stress CTP, and FFR
conclusionWith improved PLR and specificity, stress CTP and FFR KEY POINTS: • New functional CT imaging techniques, such as stress CTP and FFR
