Appropriateness of Cardiovascular Imaging in the Initial Assessment of Possible Acute Coronary Syndrome in the Emergency Department.
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. 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
Patients presenting with chest pain and related symptoms account for over 6 million emergency department (ED) visits in the United States annually. However, less than 5% of these patients are ultimately diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). ED clinicians face the diagnostic challenge of promptly identifying and treating these high-risk patients amidst the overwhelming majority of lower-risk patients for whom further testing and/or treatment is either unnecessary or non-urgent. To assist with and expedite risk stratification and decision-making in this challenging clinical scenario, diagnostic tools like clinical risk scores and high-sensitivity serum biomarkers have been incorporated into care algorithms within the ED. In this narrative review, we discuss how these tools impact the appropriate use of cardiovascular imaging in the initial assessment of patients presenting to the ED with possible ACS.
