Myocardial Perfusion Imaging: A Brief Review of Nuclear and Nonnuclear Techniques and Comparative Evaluation of Recent Advances.
Review in Indian journal of nuclear medicine : IJNM : the official journal of the Society of Nuclear Medicine, India. 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
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is the gold standard for the evaluation of epicardial CAD. In the pathogenesis of the CAD, myocardial perfusion abnormalities are the first changes that appear followed by wall motion abnormalities, electrocardiogram changes, and angina. Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) demonstrates the cumulative effect of pathology at epicardial coronary arteries, small vessels, and endothelium. Thus, it evaluates the overall burden of ischemic heart disease (IHD). MPI is used noninvasively to diagnose early asymptomatic CAD or to know the functional significance of known CAD. There are evidence that early detection of myocardial perfusion abnormalities followed by aggressive intervention against cardiovascular risk factors may restore myocardial perfusion. This may lead to reduce morbidity and mortality. Various MPI modalities have been used to diagnose and define the severity of CAD. Cardiac myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (myocardial perfusion scintigraphy [MPS]) has been in use since decades. Several newer modalities such as positron emission tomography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography perfusion, and myocardial contrast echocardiography are developing utilizing the similar principle of MPS. We shall be reviewing briefly these modalities, their performance, comparison to each other, and with ICA.
