Intravascular NIRF Molecular Imaging Approaches in Coronary Artery Disease.
Article in Current cardiovascular imaging reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Progression of vulnerable coronary atherosclerotic plaques underlies the majority of acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death episodes. Recent advances in biological/molecular imaging technology are now enabling the accurate identification of high-risk plaques and stents in living subjects. Due to their smaller caliber and susceptibility to cardiorespiratory motion, noninvasive molecular imaging of human coronary arteries remains challenging. Therefore, intravascular high-resolution molecular imaging approaches appear necessary to resolve molecular features of human coronary arteries and stents. Here we present recent progress in intravascular near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) molecular imaging, including the evolution from standalone NIRF systems to those integrated with structural imaging methods including optical coherence tomography and intravascular ultrasound. Preclinical demonstrations of imaging inflammation, fibrin, and endothelial impairment are highlighted. We then close with a discussion of translation of NIRF imaging to the cardiac catheterization laboratory and showcase first-in-human intracoronary imaging results of NIR autofluorescence in CAD.
