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

Transthoracic echocardiography is the main imaging modality to diagnose left ventricular thrombus (LVT), but its efficacy in certain cases is suboptimal. We report a patient in whom an LVT, initially unidentified by transthoracic echocardiography, was successfully diagnosed with iodine maps derived from dual-source photon-counting detector CT (DS-PCD-CT). The 64-year-old male was admitted to our institution following myocardial infarction. Although TTE failed to detect this small LVT, iodine maps derived from CT angiography (which was conducted to evaluate the coronary artery stenosis) revealed its presence. Iodine maps derived from DS-PCD-CT collecting data with high temporal resolution are beneficial to diagnose LVTs.
