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

The purpose of this review is to highlight the utility of comprehensive plaque assessment by serial coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) to understand atherosclerosis and its effect on cardiovascular risk stratification and management. CCTA is a validated, noninvasive imaging modality for coronary atherosclerotic plaque characterization. Numerous clinical trials have used approach of serial CCTA to demonstrate the potential benefits of multiple treatment strategies to reduce coronary plaque progression and its translation to benefits with cardiovascular outcomes. Serial CCTA trials for cardiovascular therapies combined with clinical outcome studies are providing mechanistic correlations of coronary atherogenesis and cardiovascular risk reduction, thereby establishing a new standard of care in addressing cardiac disease. Advancements in CCTA imaging and plaque analysis continue to expand the potential for CCTA in the evaluation of cardiovascular risk and targeted treatment of CAD.
