Myocardial viability with chronic total occlusion assessed by hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging.
Article in Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundThe present study was performed to compare the relationship of
methodsThirty-eight consecutive patients with CTO underwent FDG PET/MRI. Twenty-three patients then underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and the final study population comprised 15 patients who underwent both initial and follow-up MRI. The degree of wall motion abnormality in each of the 17 myocardial segments was evaluated based on the extent of wall thickening on cine MRI using a 5-point scale.
resultsAmong all 646 myocardial segments at baseline, FDG uptake significantly decreased as the transmurality of LGE is advanced. Of the 15 patients who underwent PCI, 152 segments showed wall motion abnormalities at baseline. The functional recovery of the wall motion abnormality of the PET-viable/MRI-viable segments was highest, and that of the PET-nonviable/MRI-nonviable segments was lowest. There were no differences in functional recovery between the PET-viable/MRI-nonviable and PET-nonviable/MRI-viable segments.
conclusionSimultaneous assessment of FDG and LGE using a hybrid PET/MRI system can help to predict functional recovery after PCI in patients with CTO.
