Sex-Specific Aspects in the Pathophysiology and Imaging of Coronary Macro- and Microvascular Disease.
Review in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Sex differences in coronary artery disease (CAD) are well established, with women presenting with non-obstructive CAD more often than men do. However, recent evidence has identified coronary microvascular dysfunction as the underlying cause for cardiac complaints, yet sex-specific prevalence numbers are inconclusive. This review summarises known sex-specific aspects in the pathophysiology of both macro- and microvascular dysfunction and identifies currently existing knowledge gaps. In addition, this review describes current diagnostic approaches and whether these should take underlying sex differences into account by, for example, using different techniques or cut-off values for women and men. Future research into both innovation of imaging techniques and perfusion-related sex differences is needed to fill evidence gaps and enable the implementation of the available knowledge in daily clinical practice.
