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

We develop a mathematical model for a small axisymmetric tear in a residually stressed and axially pre-stretched cylindrical tube. The residual stress is modelled by an opening angle when the load-free tube is sliced along a generator. This has application to the study of an aortic dissection, in which a tear develops in the wall of the artery. The artery is idealised as a single-layer thick-walled axisymmetric hyperelastic tube with collagen fibres using a Holzapfel-Gasser-Ogden strain-energy function, and the tear is treated as an incremental deformation of this tube. The lumen of the cylinder and the interior of the dissection are subject to the same constant (blood) pressure. The equilibrium equations for the incremental deformation are derived from the strain energy function. We develop numerical methods to study the opening of the tear for a range of material parameters and boundary conditions. We find that decreasing the fibre angle, decreasing the axial pre-stretch and increasing the opening angle all tend to widen the dissection, as does an incremental increase in lumen and dissection pressure.
