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

objectRupture of a cerebral aneurysm occurs mainly in a thin-walled area (TWA). Prediction of TWAs would help to assess the risk of rupture and select appropriate treatment strategy. There are several limitations of current prediction techniques for TWAs. To predict TWAs more accurately, HP should be normalized to minimize the influence of analysis conditions, and the effectiveness of normalized, combined hemodynamic parameters (CHPs) should be investigated with help of the quantitative color analysis of intraoperative images.

methodsA total of 21 unruptured cerebral aneurysms in 19 patients were analyzed. A normalized CHP was newly suggested as a weighted average of normalized wall shear stress (WSS) and normalized oscillatory shear index (OSI). Delta E from International Commission on Illumination was used to more objectively quantify color differences in intraoperative images.

resultsCFD analysis results indicated that WSS and OSI were more predictive of TWAs than pressure (

conclusion100% weighting on the normalized WSS produced the most statistically significant result. The normalization scheme for WSS and OSI suggested in this work was validated using quantitative color analyses, rather than subjective judgments, of intraoperative images, and it might be clinically useful for predicting TWAs of unruptured cerebral aneurysms. The normalization scheme would also be integrated into further fluid-structure interaction analysis for more reliable estimation of the risk of aneurysm rupture.
