1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Technical developments in multidetector computed tomography (CT) have increased the number of detector rows on the z-axis, and 16-cm wide-area-coverage CT scanners have enabled volumetric scanning of the entire heart. Beyond coronary arterial imaging, such innovations offer several advantages during clinical imaging in the cardiothoracic area. The wide-detector CT scanner markedly reduces the image acquisition time to less than 1 second for coronary CT angiography, thereby decreasing the volume of contrast material and radiation dose required for the examination. It also eliminates stair-step artifacts, allowing robust improvements in myocardial function and perfusion imaging. Additionally, new imaging techniques for the cardiothoracic area, including subtraction imaging and free-breathing scans, have been developed and further improved by using the wide-detector CT scanner. This article investigates the technical developments in wide-detector CT scanners, summarizes their clinical applications in the cardiothoracic area, and provides a review of the recent literature.
