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

Postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) has a limited value in investigating coronary artery disease, despite several obvious advantages over the conventional autopsy. To address this issue, postmortem computed tomography angiography (PMCTA) has been introduced into various studies, where it has been used to investigate natural and unnatural deaths involving vascular damage, occlusion, or other pathologies of the vascular system. To investigate the application value of PMCTA in the diagnosis of coronary artery stenosis in Key points: The methods and parameters for coronary angiography in isolated human hearts were standardized based on the previous researcher.PMCTA in isolated human hearts is including the 3D reconstruction technique that reveals the coronary artery lesions more objectively and vividly, and provides the opportunity to re-read the data at anytime.PMCTA could only be used to examine the pathological changes of blood vessels, which might have limitations for the diagnosis of causes of death.PMCTA in isolated human hearts can be viewed as an auxiliary method for establishing the cause of death, which can provide an assessment of degree and extent of arterial stenosis and accurately help determine the abnormal location.
