Risk stratification of coronary plaques using physiologic characteristics by CCTA: Focus on shear stress.
Review in Journal of cardiovascular computed tomography. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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 identification of factors determining whether a lesion progresses, destabilizes or becomes quiescent remains a challenge. Wall or endothelial shear stress (WSS or ESS, respectively), the frictional force acting on the lumen wall, is strongly associated with changes in the natural history of lesions. Several clinical intravascular imaging studies have shown a clear link between disturbed flow, typically characterized by low WSS, and plaque growth. In support of these studies, in-vitro experiments of shear stress have identified several mechanisms promoting atherosclerosis. More recently, the relationship between WSS and major adverse cardiac events has been explored. Improvements in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) image resolution and quality has allowed for the calculation of WSS from CT. In this review, we provide an introduction to WSS, highlight important human and animal intravascular-based WSS studies, and discuss CT-based WSS studies to date. Finally, we discuss future directions of CCTA and WSS computation.
