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

Low-dose computed tomography attenuation correction (CTAC) scans are used in hybrid myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for attenuation correction and coronary calcium scoring, and contain additional anatomic and pathologic information not utilized in clinical assessment. We seek to uncover the full potential of these scans utilizing a holistic artificial intelligence (AI) approach. A multi-structure model segmented 33 structures and quantified 15 radiomics features in each organ in 10,480 patients from 4 sites. Coronary calcium and epicardial fat measures were obtained from separate AI models. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curves (AUC) for all-cause mortality prediction of the model utilizing MPI, CT, stress test, and clinical features was 0.80 (95% confidence interval [0.74-0.87]), which was higher than for coronary calcium (0.64 [0.57-0.71]) or perfusion (0.62 [0.55-0.70]), with p < 0.001 for both. A comprehensive multimodality approach can significantly improve mortality prediction compared to MPI information alone in patients undergoing hybrid MPI.
