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

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is increasingly used in the evaluation of cardiomyopathies, particularly in patients who are not able to undergo other non-invasive imaging tests such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to the presence of MRI-incompatible pacemakers/defibrillators or other contraindications or due to extensive artifacts from indwelling metallic devices. Advances in scanner technology enable acquisition of CT images with high spatial resolution, good temporal resolution, wide field of view and multi-planar reconstruction capabilities. CT is useful in cardiomyopathies in several ways, particularly in the evaluation of coronary arteries, characterization of cardiomyopathy phenotype, quantification of cardiac volumes and function, treatment-planning, and post-treatment evaluation. In this article, we review the imaging techniques and specific applications of CT in the evaluation of cardiomyopathies.
