Prediction of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Response Using Quantitative Gated Myocardial Perfusion Imaging.
Article in The Journal of innovations in cardiac rhythm management, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Conventional selection criteria are not consistently able to discriminate between responders and non-responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The objective of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of quantitative gated single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in predicting the response to CRT. This prospective cross-sectional study included 25 patients with advanced congestive heart failure who underwent quantitative gated SPECT before and after CRT implantation. Patients with the left ventricular (LV) lead positioned at the latest activation segment away from the scar had a significantly higher chance of responding than those with the lead positioned at a different area. Responders were likely to have a phase standard deviation (PSD) value of >33°, with 86.6% sensitivity and 90% specificity, and a phase histogram bandwidth (PHB) value of >153°, with 100% sensitivity and 80% specificity. Quantitative gated SPECT can help refine patient selection for CRT implantation, using PSD and PHB cutoff points, in addition to guiding the positioning of the LV lead.
