Association of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography and Stress Echocardiography with Long-Term Cardiac Outcome: A Comparison Study.

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
aimsThis study aimed to assess which variables on coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) and vasodilator stress-echocardiography (SE) are best associated with long-term cardiac outcome in patients presenting for suspected chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) who performed both tests.
methodsWe identified 397 patients with suspected CCS who, between 2007 and 2019, underwent both SE and CTA within 30 days. Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and the number of coronary arteries with diameter stenosis >50% were assessed on CTA. The presence of reversible regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA) and reduced Doppler coronary flow velocity reserve in the left-anterior descending coronary artery (CFVR) were assessed on SE. The association of SE and CTA variables with cardiac outcome (cardiac death or myocardial infarction) was evaluated using Fine and Gray competing risk models.
resultsDuring a median follow-up of 10 years, 38 (9.6%) patients experienced a nonfatal myocardial infarction and 19 (4.8%) died from a cardiac cause. RWMA (HR 7.189,
conclusionOur data suggest that only CFVR on vasodilatory SE and CACS on CTA are independently and strongly associated with long-term cardiac outcome, unlike RWMA or the number of stenosed coronary arteries, usually considered the hallmarks of coronary artery disease on each test.
