Role of non-invasive coronary imaging in stable angina.
Review in Global cardiology science & practice, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Chest pain represents a symptom of significant clinical concern due to the potential for lethal etiologies. Accordingly, it is critical to ascertain the presence of stable angina through various diagnostic tests to inform subsequent therapeutic strategies. Stable angina, while potentially progressing to more severe conditions if left untreated, suffers from a paucity of research regarding its management compared to other more fatal causes of chest pain. Recent advancements in radiological imaging necessitate a re-evaluation of the array and functionality of diagnostic tests, with particular emphasis on prioritizing non-invasive methods such as electrocardiography and echocardiography. This study undertakes a comprehensive review of the literature pertaining to various diagnostic tests for stable angina. We conclude that the management of a patient presenting with chest pain encompasses a continuum of care, beginning with a detailed patient history to estimate pre-test probability and culminating in computed tomography coronary angiography. This continuum is highly individualized, taking into account patient-specific variables, disease burden, and test indications. In an era of rapid research advancement, our findings delineate the optimal sequence of initial diagnostic tests, emphasizing the role of current non-invasive imaging modalities as outlined in standard clinical guidelines.
