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

The mechanical characterization of brain tissue has been generally analyzed in the frequency and time domain. It is crucial to understand the mechanics of the brain under realistic, dynamic conditions and convert it to enable mathematical modelling in a time domain. In this study, the compressive viscoelastic properties of brain tissue were investigated under time and frequency domains with the same physical conditions and the theory of viscoelasticity was applied to estimate the prediction of viscoelastic response in the time domain based on frequency-dependent mechanical moduli through Finite Element models. Storage and loss modulus were obtained from white and grey matter, of bovine brains, using dynamic mechanical analysis and time domain material functions were derived based on a Prony series representation. The material models were evaluated using brain testing data from stress relaxation and hysteresis in the time dependent analysis. The Finite Element models were able to represent the trend of viscoelastic characterization of brain tissue under both testing domains. The outcomes of this study contribute to a better understanding of brain tissue mechanical behaviour and demonstrate the feasibility of deriving time-domain viscoelastic parameters from frequency-dependent compressive data for biological tissue, as validated by comparing experimental tests with computational simulations.
