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
Background: Three-vessel coronary artery disease (3V-CAD) often requires revascularization with either percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The SYNTAX score is widely used for anatomical risk stratification, but whether magnetocardiography (MCG) provides incremental information beyond anatomical assessment remains uncertain. Objectives: To evaluate, in an exploratory pilot analysis, whether MCG-derived parameters add information beyond the SYNTAX score for modeling clinician-selected revascularization category in 3V-CAD and to examine the noncausal association between model-treatment concordance and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). Methods: Prospective cohort data were analyzed retrospectively. Candidate MCG parameters were screened using Pearson correlation, random forest analysis, and stepwise logistic regression, and selected variables were combined with the SYNTAX score. Model discrimination, calibration, bootstrap internal validation, and LASSO penalized logistic regression sensitivity analysis were assessed. Model-treatment concordance was explored using Kaplan-Meier analysis and multivariable Cox regression. Results: Among 544 patients, 543 complete cases were available for model evaluation, including 42 CABG events. In the overall cohort, the combined MCG-SYNTAX model did not materially improve discrimination compared with the SYNTAX-only model (AUC, 0.853 vs. 0.847; Conclusions: In this single-center pilot modeling study, selected MCG parameters showed limited and unstable incremental value beyond the SYNTAX score for modeling clinician-selected revascularization category in 3V-CAD. These findings do not support clinical implementation at this stage and require external validation.
