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

backgroundThe aims of this study were to investigate the application of a constant infusion (CI) to mitigate the issue of constantly changing Gd-DTPA contrast levels in a bolus injection for extracellular volume (ECV) measurements by (a) comparing a CI alone to a bolus alone and a bolus followed by CI in healthy myocardium, (b) evaluating the impact of glucose suppression using heparin on ECV.

methodsFive healthy canine subjects were imaged to compare three different protocols for injecting Gd-DTPA and FDG: bolus alone, CI alone, bolus followed by CI. Suppression of myocardial glucose uptake was induced using a continuous infusion of 20% lipid at a rate of 0.25 mL·min

resultsThere was no significant effect on ECV measurement when heparin was used for glucose suppression at equilibrium irrespective of infusion protocol). Measurements of ECV in myocardium, regardless of infusion protocol showed no significant difference at all time points (P = 0.21) prior to washout.
