Diagnostic value of computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging to detect coexisting microvascular dysfunction in patients with obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease.
Article in Quantitative imaging in medicine and surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Computed tomography myocardial perfusion (CT-MP) has reported usefulness in assessing hemodynamically significant epicardial coronary artery lesions. However, the diagnostic ability of the absolute coronary flow using CT-MP to detect coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) remains elusive. This prospective cohort study aimed to assess the diagnostic value of CT-MP in evaluating coexisting CMD in patients with functionally significant epicardial coronary stenosis and to analyze the predictive factors of lesions with CMD. Methods: Sixty-eight patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) and Results: FFR, invasive wire-derived coronary flow reserve (CFR Conclusions: Quantitative assessment of absolute coronary flow using pre-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) CT-MP, and comprehensive plaque analysis using computed tomography angiography may help detect coexisting subtended microvascular dysfunction in territories with functionally significant epicardial coronary lesions. Further studies are required to elucidate the clinical significance of coexisting CMD in patients with CCS undergoing PCI.
