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

backgroundIn the assessment of patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD), the diagnostic role of stress-perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is well established. However, its reliance on gadolinium-based contrast agents may restrict its application in certain populations. T1 mapping during vasodilatory stress has been proposed as a contrast-free alternative for detecting CAD. This study sought to compare the diagnostic accuracy of adenosine-stress T1 reactivity (ΔT1) with that of stress-perfusion CMR for identifying hemodynamically significant CAD.

methodsPatients with suspected angina referred for diagnostic invasive coronary angiography underwent 3-Tesla CMR consisting of the following: (1) T1 mapping at rest and following intravenous adenosine using a modified Look-Locker inversion recovery sequence, (2) stress and rest perfusion, and (3) late-gadolinium enhancement. Significant CAD was defined invasively as fractional flow reserve ≤0.80 in epicardial vessels ≥2 mm diameter (or quantitative flow ratio ≤0.80 if unavailable). A ΔT1 vessel threshold (% increase in T1 from rest to stress) was derived from receiver operating characteristic analysis, using invasive coronary angiography as the reference standard. Stress-perfusion CMR was assessed qualitatively with CAD determined by the presence of ischemia and/or infarction, (A) per-vessel (as determined by two independent readers) and (B) per-patient (following consensus read).

resultsOf 121 prospectively recruited patients, 115 had paired T1 mapping and coronary angiography data (mean age 66 ± 9 years, 72% [83/115] male, CAD prevalence 51% [59/115]). ΔT1 demonstrated poor diagnostic performance for detecting significant CAD (area under the curve 0.59 [95% CI: 0.52, 0.65], p = 0.011), with an optimal vessel threshold ≤4.36% giving accuracy 54.9%, sensitivity 68.3%, and specificity 49.2%. Stress-perfusion CMR demonstrated superior diagnostic accuracy compared to ΔT1: (A) per-vessel (for the two independent reads, +26.2% [19.4%, 32.6%] and +26.7% [19.9%, 33.3%], both p<0.001) and (B) per-patient (for consensus read, +21.7% [10.2%, 32.6%], p<0.001).

conclusionIn patients with suspected angina, ΔT1 demonstrates limited diagnostic accuracy for the detection of obstructive CAD. Future efforts should be directed toward alternative contrast-free methods for the reliable detection of CAD in this population.
