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

backgroundTechnetium-based cardiac amyloid radionuclide imaging enables noninvasive diagnosis of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), but conventional planar and visual semiquantitative approaches have important limitations. We developed the quantitative 3-dimensional Mayo 3D Score, defined as the ratio of mean left ventricular myocardial radiotracer uptake to right atrial blood-pool uptake using computed tomography (CT)-fused single-photon emission CT (SPECT) volumes of interest, and sought to validate its diagnostic performance against myocardial pathology.

methodsConsecutive patients who underwent

resultsAmong 230 patients (median age, 72 years; 78% male), 107 (47%) had ATTR-CM, of whom 9 had hereditary ATTR-CM. The Mayo 3D Score showed excellent discrimination against pathology (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.92 [0.88-0.96]), exceeding planar Perugini (0.87 [0.83-0.92];
