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

objectiveCardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely accepted reference imaging technique in routine cardiology clinics in many centers due to its advantages in providing preferable functional, morphologic information. However, there is little information about national experience in clinical application and findings of cardiovascular MRI. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the clinical and demographic characteristics of patients admitted to our cardiac imaging department.

methodsA total of 500 cardiovascular MRI examinations performed between 2016 and 2019 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Clinical indications, demographic, and cardiovascular MRI findings of the patients were retrospectively evaluated.

resultsFive hundred patients (M/F=301/199) were included in this retrospective, single center study. The majority of the examinations were performed for the assessment of congenital heart disease (n=254, 50.8%). The other indications were for myocardial disease (n=160, 32%), cardiac mass (n=44, 8.8%), valvular heart disease (n=20, 4%), magnetic resonance angiography (n=12, 2.4% for aorta and pulmonary artery [n=9, 1.8%] and for coronary arteries [n=3, 0.6%]), and vasculitis (n=7, 1.7%), pericardial disease (n=3, 0.6%). Minor complication was seen during the contrast agent injection in three patients (0.06%).

conclusionCardiovascular MRI is a reliable and accurate imaging tool in identifying the various cardiac pathology with widely accepted use in the clinical area. Our single-center experience of 500 cases demonstrates the varieties of clinical indications in daily practice that may contribute to the national data pool.
