Accuracy of stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in a district hospital.

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
Background: The European Society of Cardiology has published updated guidelines regarding pathways for diagnosis and management of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Non-invasive functional assessment, for example, by stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance (stress pCMR) is recommended in patients with intermediate pretest probability of disease. Previous pCMR studies were mainly performed in high volume university hospitals with experienced radiologists or cardiologists interpreting the images. Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the feasibility of establishing a stress pCMR imaging service in a district hospital. Material and Methods: One hundred and thirteen patients with intermediate pretest probability of CAD referred for single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) at the regional hospital also underwent adenosine stress pCMR locally. The diagnostic analysis was compared to that of an experienced cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) center serving as a reference. Results: Inter-rater agreement between local readers and the reference reader was substantial to perfect for late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) (weighted kappa = 0.76 and 0.82), but only fair to moderate for pCMR ( Conclusion: CMR is feasible in patients with intermediate pretest probability of obstructive CAD in the setting of a district hospital. However, as opposed to infarct detection with LGE, the interpretation of stress pCMR was more challenging. To establish this method, we suggest obtaining experience in close collaboration with a reference CMR center.
