Biomechanical Aspects of Closing Approaches in Postcarotid Endarterectomy.
Article in Computational and mathematical methods in medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
The carotid bifurcation tends to develop atherosclerotic stenoses which might interfere with cerebral blood supply. In cases of arterial blockage, the common clinical solution is to remove the plaque via carotid endarterectomy (CEA) surgery. Artery closure after surgery using primary closures along the cutting edge might lead to artery narrowing and restrict blood flow. An alternative approach is patch angioplasty which takes longer time and leads to more during-surgery complications. The present study uses numerical methods with fluid-structure interaction (FSI) to explore and compare the two solutions in terms of hemodynamics and stress and strain fields developed in the artery wall.
