Patient-Specific 3D-Print Extracranial Vascular Simulators and Infrared Imaging Platform for Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography Training.

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
Tortuous aortic arch is always challenging for beginner neuro-interventionalists. Herein, we share our experience of using 3D-printed extracranial vascular simulators (VSs) and the infrared imaging platform (IRIP) in two training courses for diagnostic cerebral angiography in the past 4 years. A total of four full-scale patient-specific carotid-aortic-iliac models were fabricated, including one type I arch, one bovine variant, and two type III arches. With an angiography machine (AM) as the imaging platform for the practice and final test, the first course was held in March 2018 had 10 participants, including three first-year residents (R1), three second-year residents (R2), and four third-year residents (R3). With introduction of the IRIP as the imaging platform for practice, the second course in March 2022 had nine participants, including 3 R1s, 3 R2s, and 3 R3s. The total manipulation time (TMT) to complete type III aortic arch navigation was recorded. In the first course, the average TMT of the first trial was 13.1 min. Among 3 R1s and 3 R2s attending the second trial, the average TMT of the second trial was 3.4 min less than that of the first trial. In the second course using IRIP, the average TMT of the first and second trials was 6.7 min and 4.8 min, respectively. The TMT of the second trial (range 2.2~14.4 min; median 5.9 min) was significantly shorter than that of the first trial (range 3.6~18 min; median 8.7 min), regardless of whether AM or IRIP was used (
