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

MRI-based fluid-structure interactions (FSI) models for atherosclerotic plaques have been developed to perform mechanical analysis to investigate the association of plaque wall stress (PWS) with cardiovascular disease. However, the time consuming 3D FSI model construction process is a great hinder for its clinical implementations. In this study, a 3D thin-layer structure only (TLS) plaque model was proposed as an approximation with much less computational cost to 3D FSI models for better clinical implementation potential. 192 TLS models were constructed based on 192 ex vivo MRI Images of 12 human coronary atherosclerotic plaques. Plaque stresses were extracted from all lumen nodal points. The maximum value of Plaque wall stress (MPWS) and average value of plaque wall stress (APWS) of each slice were used to compare with those from corresponding FSI models. The relative errors for MPWS and APWS were 9.76% and 9.89%, respectively. Both MPWS and APWS values obtained from TLS models showed very good correlation with those from 3D FSI models. Correlation results from TLS models were in consistent with FSI models. Our results indicated that the proposed 3D TLS plaque models may be used as a good approximation to 3D FSI models with much less computational cost. With further validation, 3D TLS models may be possibly used to replace FSI models to save time and perform mechanical analysis for atherosclerotic plaques for clinical implementation.
