Selection of PET Camera and Implications on the Reliability and Accuracy of Absolute Myocardial Blood Flow Quantification.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewPET scanner design and performance evaluation has been driven historically by the imaging requirements for whole-body imaging in oncology. Cardiac PET imaging for accurate quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) using short-lived tracers such as rubidium-82 imposes additional requirements for wide dynamic range and high count-rate accuracy. This paper examines the technical challenges encountered in cardiac imaging of myocardial perfusion and blood flow quantification. RECENT
findingsThe newest PET-CT scanners using digital silicon photomultiplier technology have high absolute sensitivity (4-20%) and time-of-flight resolution (3-7 cm) which further improves image quality. The concept of "integral" noise equivalent counts (iNEC) is introduced to compare scanner count-rate performance over the wide dynamic range encountered in MBF imaging with rubidium-82. The latest-generation digital PET scanners with wide axial field-of-view and enhanced time-of-flight resolution should enable accurate quantification of MBF, without any compromise in the quality of conventional ECG-gated myocardial perfusion images.
