Hemodynamic alternations following stent deployment and post-dilation in a heavily calcified coronary artery: In silico and ex-vivo approaches.
Article in Computers in biology and medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
In this work, hemodynamic alterations in a patient-specific, heavily calcified coronary artery following stent deployment and post-dilations are quantified using in silico and ex-vivo approaches. Three-dimensional artery models were reconstructed from OCT images. Stent deployment and post-dilation with various inflation pressures were performed through both the finite element method (FEM) and ex vivo experiments. Results from FEM agreed very well with the ex-vivo measurements, interms of lumen areas, stent underexpansion, and strut malapposition. In addition, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed to delineate the hemodynamic alterations after stent deployment and post-dilations. A pressure time history at the inlet and a lumped parameter model (LPM) at the outlet were adopted to mimic the aortic pressure and the distal arterial tree, respectively. The pressure drop across the lesion, pertaining to the clinical measure of instantaneous wave-free flow ratio (iFR), was investigated. Results have shown that post-dilations are necessary for the lumen gain as well as the hemodynamic restoration towards hemostasis. Malapposed struts induced much higher shear rate, flow disturbances and lower time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS) around struts. Post-dilations mitigated the strut malapposition, and thus the shear rate. Moreover, stenting induced larger area of low TAWSS (<0.4 Pa) and lager volume of high shear rate (>2000 s
