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

purposeCoarctation of Aorta (CoA) is a congenital disease consisting of a narrowing that obstructs the systemic blood flow. This proof-of-concept study aimed to develop a framework for automatically and robustly personalizing aortic hemodynamic computations for the assessment of pre- and post-intervention CoA patients from 3D rotational angiography (3DRA) data.

methodsWe propose a framework that combines hemodynamic modelling and machine learning (ML) based techniques, and rely on 3DRA data for non-invasive pressure computation in CoA patients. The key features of our framework are a parameter estimation method for calibrating inlet and outlet boundary conditions, and regional mechanical wall properties, to ensure that the computational results match the patient-specific measurements, and an improved ML based pressure drop model capable of predicting the instantaneous pressure drop for a wide range of flow conditions and anatomical CoA variations.

resultsWe evaluated the framework by investigating 6 patient datasets, under pre- and post-operative setting, and, since all calibration procedures converged successfully, the proposed approach is deemed robust. We compared the peak-to-peak and the cycle-averaged pressure drop computed using the reduced-order hemodynamic model with the catheter based measurements, before and after virtual and actual stenting. The mean absolute error for the peak-to-peak pressure drop, which is the most relevant measure for clinical decision making, was 2.98 mmHg for the pre- and 2.11 mmHg for the post-operative setting. Moreover, the proposed method is computationally efficient: the average execution time was of only [Formula: see text] minutes on a standard hardware configuration.

conclusionThe use of 3DRA for hemodynamic modelling could allow for a complete hemodynamic assessment, as well as virtual interventions or surgeries and predictive modeling. However, before such an approach can be used routinely, significant advancements are required for automating the workflow.
