Coronary CT angiography-based estimation of myocardial perfusion territories for coronary artery FFR and wall shear stress simulation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
This study aims to apply a CCTA-derived territory-based patient-specific estimation of boundary conditions for coronary artery fractional flow reserve (FFR) and wall shear stress (WSS) simulation. The non-invasive simulation can help diagnose the significance of coronary stenosis and the likelihood of myocardial ischemia. FFR is often regarded as the gold standard to evaluate the functional significance of stenosis in coronary arteries. In another aspect, proximal wall shear stress ([Formula: see text]) can also be an indicator of plaque vulnerability. During the simulation process, the mass flow rate of the blood in coronary arteries is one of the most important boundary conditions. This study utilized the myocardium territory to estimate and allocate the mass flow rate. 20 patients are included in this study. From the knowledge of anatomical information of coronary arteries and the myocardium, the territory-based FFR and the [Formula: see text] can both be derived from fluid dynamics simulations. Applying the threshold of distinguishing between significant and non-significant stenosis, the territory-based method can reach the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of 0.88, 0.90, and 0.80, respectively. For significantly stenotic cases ([Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] 0.80), the vessels usually have higher wall shear stress in the proximal region of the lesion.
