The Diagnostic Value of 99mTc-HMPAO-Labelled White Blood Cell Scintigraphy and 18F-FDG PET/CT in Cardiac Device-Related Infective Endocarditis-A Systematic Review.
Review in Journal of personalized medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
(1) Background: Treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders with the implantation of a cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) may lead to complications. Cardiac device-related infective endocarditis (CDRIE) stands out as being one of the most challenging in terms of its diagnosis and management. Developing molecular imaging modalities may provide additional insights into CDRIE diagnosis. (2) Methods: We performed a systematic literature review to critically appraise the evidence for the diagnostic performance of the following hybrid techniques: single photon emission tomography with technetium99m-hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime-labeled autologous leukocytes (99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT/CT) and positron emission tomography with fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG PET/CT). An analysis was performed in accordance with PRISMA and GRADE criteria and included articles from PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases. (3) Results: Initially, there were 2131 records identified which had been published between 1971-2021. Finally, 18 studies were included presenting original data on the diagnostic value of 99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT/CT or 18F-FDG PET/CT in CDRIE. Analysis showed that these molecular imaging modalities provide high diagnostic accuracy and their inclusion in diagnostic criteria improves CDRIE work-up. (4) Conclusions: 99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT provide high diagnostic value in the identification of patients at risk of CDRIE and should be considered for inclusion in the CDRIE diagnostic process.
