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

In-stent restenosis (ISR) is the major drawback of superficial femoral artery (SFA) stenting. Abnormal hemodynamics after stent implantation seems to promote the development of ISR. Accordingly, this study aims to investigate the impact of local hemodynamics on lumen remodeling in human stented SFA lesions. Ten SFA models were reconstructed at 1-week and 1-year follow-up from computed tomography images. Patient-specific computational fluid dynamics simulations were performed to relate the local hemodynamics at 1-week, expressed in terms of time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), oscillatory shear index and relative residence time, with the lumen remodeling at 1-year, quantified as the change of lumen area between 1-week and 1-year. The TAWSS was negatively associated with the lumen area change (ρ = - 0.75, p = 0.013). The surface area exposed to low TAWSS was positively correlated with the lumen area change (ρ = 0.69, p = 0.026). No significant correlations were present between the other hemodynamic descriptors and lumen area change. The low TAWSS was the best predictive marker of lumen remodeling (positive predictive value of 44.8%). Moreover, stent length and overlapping were predictor of ISR at follow-up. Despite the limited number of analyzed lesions, the overall findings suggest an association between abnormal patterns of WSS after stenting and lumen remodeling.
