Coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis was defined as >50% luminal narrowing of vessel. All studies assessed vessel stenosis or occlusion with quantitative or visually based catheter-based coronary angiography. CABG Coronary artery bypass graft; CAD Coronary artery disease; NPV Negative predictive value; PPV Positive predictive value
