Pulmonary blood volume as a marker of adenosine-induced cardiac hyperemia: A Rubidium-82 study.

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
purposeTo investigate the efficacy of pulmonary blood volume (PBV) as a marker of the cardiac hyperemic response to adenosine during myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI).
methodsForty healthy subjects underwent four consecutive Rubidium-82 rest/adenosine-stress MPI: two sessions were conducted without any caffeine consumption (baseline), while the remaining two sessions involved controlled caffeine consumption (arm 1: 100 and 300 mg; arm 2: 200 and 400 mg). We evaluate the ability of the stress-to-rest ratio of PBV (PBV ratio) to identify an adequate cardiac hyperemic response. The adequate hyperemic response was defined as a stress myocardial blood flow >2 mL/g/min and a corresponding myocardial flow reserve >68% of the maximum myocardial flow reserve obtained during the baseline scans.
resultsBased on 126 MPI sessions conducted in 40 subjects, the PBV ratio demonstrated a sensitivity of 78% and a specificity of 74% in detecting adequate cardiac hyperemia. The positive predictive value was 95%, while the negative predictive value was 36%.
conclusionThe PBV ratio permits the identification of adequate hyperemic response with sensitivities and specificities comparable to existing markers.
