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

backgroundThis preliminary study was undertaken to evaluate relationship among the degree of internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, wall shear stress (WSS) by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and

methodsA total of 40 carotid arteries in 20 patients with carotid atherosclerotic disease were examined with MRA and

resultsAtherosclerotic risk factors did not affect imaging findings. There were significant correlations between WSSmax and degree of ICA stenosis (ρ = .81, P < .001), WSSmax and TBRmax (ρ = .64, P < .001), and TBRmax and degree of ICA stenosis (ρ = .50, P = .001).

conclusionsThese preliminary results indicate that there may be significant correlations among the degree of ICA stenosis, WSSmax and TBRmax in patients with carotid artery stenosis.
