Myocardial extracellular volume measurement using cardiac computed tomography.
Review in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Myocardial fibrosis is a common endpoint of many cardiac diseases and increasingly recognized as a predictor of heart failure, arrhythmia, and death. Recent studies have utilised cardiac computed tomography (CT) scans with delayed phase imaging to quantify diffuse fibrosis of the myocardium. CT extracellular volume (CT-ECV) measurement correlates well with CMR and histological myocardial fibrosis. Furthermore, CT-ECV predicts outcomes such as death, heart failure and arrhythmia in various disease states. This review summarizes the rationale and methodology behind CT-ECV measurement and provides a detailed summary of the current clinical evidence for the use of CT-ECV.
