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
Objective: To explore the additional value of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) post-contrast T1 mapping in the detection of myocardial infarction, compared with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). Materials and methods: A CMR database of consecutive patients with myocardial infarction was retrospectively analyzed. All patients were scanned at 3 T magnetic resonance; they underwent conventional CMR (including LGE) and post-contrast T1 mapping imaging. Two radiologists interpreted the CMR images using a 16-segment model. The first interpretation included only LGE images. After 30 days, the same radiologists performed a second analysis of random LGE images, with the addition of post-contrast T1 mapping images. Images were analyzed to diagnose myocardial scars, and the transmural extent of each scar was visually evaluated. Diagnoses retained after LGE were compared with diagnoses retained after the addition of post-contrast T1 mapping. Results: In total, 80 patients (1,280 myocardial segments) were included in the final analysis. After the addition of post-contrast T1 mapping, eight previously unidentified subendocardial scars were detected. Compared with LGE images, the percentage of infarcted segments was higher after the addition of post-contrast T1 mapping images (21.7% vs. 22.3%, Conclusion: The addition of post-contrast T1 mapping after LGE helps to improve the detection of myocardial infarction, as well as the assessment of the transmural extent of scarring.
