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

Compared with traditional invasive coronary angiography (ICA), coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has the advantages of being rapid, economical, and minimally invasive. The wide-detector CT, with its superior temporal resolution and robust three-dimensional reconstruction technology, thus enables CCTA in patients with high heart rates and arrhythmias, leading to a high potential for clinical application. This paper systematically summarizes wide-detector CT hardware configurations of various vendors routinely used for CCTA examinations and reviews the effects of patient heart rate and heart rate variability, scanning modality, reconstruction algorithms, tube voltage, and scanning field of view on image quality and radiation dose. In addition, novel technologies in the field of CT applied to CCTA examinations are also presented. Since this examination has a diagnostic accuracy that is highly consistent with ICA, it can be further used as a routine examination tool for coronary artery disease in clinical practice.
