Comparison of computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) alone vs. CTCA with selective FFR
Article in European heart journal. Imaging methods and practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Aims: The original FORECAST trial was designed to compare a strategy of computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) and selective FFR Methods and results: The FORECAST trial recruited 1400 patients randomized between two strategies: (i) initial test of choice at the discretion of the healthcare provider (standard care arm) or (ii) CTCA ± FFR Conclusion: In this prespecified FORECAST substudy of patients whose clinicians preferred CTCA as the first test prior to randomization, the CTCA ± FFR
