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

Arterial aneurysms are pathological dilations of blood vessels, which can be of clinical concern due to thrombosis, dissection, or rupture. Aneurysms can form throughout the arterial system, including intracranial, thoracic, abdominal, visceral, peripheral, or coronary arteries. Currently, aneurysm diameter and expansion rates are the most commonly used metrics to assess rupture risk. Surgical or endovascular interventions are clinical treatment options, but are invasive and associated with risk for the patient. For aneurysms in locations where thrombosis is the primary concern, diameter is also used to determine the level of therapeutic anticoagulation, a treatment that increases the possibility of internal bleeding. Since simple diameter is often insufficient to reliably determine rupture and thrombosis risk, computational hemodynamic simulations are being developed to help assess when an intervention is warranted. Created from subject-specific data, computational models have the potential to be used to predict growth, dissection, rupture, and thrombus-formation risk based on hemodynamic parameters, including wall shear stress, oscillatory shear index, residence time, and anomalous blood flow patterns. Generally, endothelial damage and flow stagnation within aneurysms can lead to coagulation, inflammation, and the release of proteases, which alter extracellular matrix composition, increasing risk of rupture. In this review, we highlight recent work that investigates aneurysm geometry, model parameter assumptions, and other specific considerations that influence computational aneurysm simulations. By highlighting modeling validation and verification approaches, we hope to inspire future computational efforts aimed at improving our understanding of aneurysm pathology and treatment risk stratification.
