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

purposeTo analyze size-dependent hemodynamic factors [velocity, shear rate, blood viscosity, wall shear stress (WSS)] in unruptured cerebral aneurysms using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based on the measured non-Newtonian model of viscosity.

methodsTwenty-one patients with unruptured aneurysms formed the study cohort. Patient-specific geometric models were reconstructed for CFD analyses. Aneurysms were divided into small and large groups based on a cutoff size of 5 mm. For comparison between small and large aneurysms, 5 morphologic variables were measured. Patient-specific non-Newtonian blood viscosity was applied for more detailed CFD simulation. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of velocity, shear rate, blood viscosity, and WSS were conducted to compare small and large aneurysms.

resultsComplex flow patterns were found in large aneurysms. Large aneurysms had a significantly lower shear rate (235 ± 341 s

conclusionsLarge aneurysms tended to have complex flow patterns, low shear rate, high blood viscosity, and low WSS. The hemodynamic factors that we analyzed might be useful for decision making before surgical treatment of aneurysms.
