ObjectivesTo systematically review clinical values of multi-slice spiral computed tomography angiography (MSCTA) in diagnosis of chest pain triple (CPT).MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, CBM, VIP and WanFang Data databases were searched to collect diagnostic tests on CPT diagnosed by MSCTA from inception to October 2017. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed by Stata 12.0 software. The pooled weighted Sen, Spe, +LR, -LR, and the DOR were calculated, SROC and AUC were drawn.ResultsA total of 11 diagnostic studies were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the pooled Sen, Spe, +LR, -LR, DOR and AUC of MSCTA for diagnosing CPT were 0.95 (95%CI 0.91 to 0.98), 0.97 (95%CI 0.94 to 0.98), 31.24 (95%CI 15.63 to 62.43), 0.05 (95%CI 0.02 to 0.10), 659.04 (95%CI 236.73 to 1 834.71) and 0.99 (95%CI 0.98 to 1.00), respectively.ConclusionsMSCTA has high sensibility and specificity for diagnosing CPT. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
