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

The non-invasive assessment of ischaemic heart disease with myocardial perfusion imaging remains an integral part of modern cardiology. This modality has been used for decades, but improving technology has maintained its relevance today. This document describes the fundamentals of single-photon emission computed tomography, including stress protocols, tracer pharmacodynamics, camera settings and capabilities, post-acquisition processing, and clinical translation in an easy to read and highly pictorial manner to be applicable to not only healthcare providers of all levels, but patients as well.
