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

backgroundShear forces affecting erythrocytes in PVL channels can be calculated with computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The presence of PVLs is always associated with some degree of hemolysis in a simplified model of the left ventricle (LV); however, data from real-life examples is lacking.

methodsBlood flow through PVL channels was assessed in two variants. Firstly, a PVL channel, extracted from cardiac computed tomography (CCT), was placed in a simplified model of the LV. Secondly, a real-life model of the LV was created based on CCT data from a subject with a PVL. The following variables were assessed: wall shear stress (

results

conclusionsParameters that describe blood flow through PVL channels can be reliably assessed in a simplified model. LDH levels in subjects with PVLs may be related to
