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
Objective: Although surgical simulation using computational fluid dynamics has advanced, little is known about the accuracy of cardiac surgical procedures after patient-specific design. We evaluated the effects of discrepancies in location for patient-specific simulation and actual implantation on hemodynamic performance of patient-specific tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs) in porcine models. Methods: Magnetic resonance angiography and 4-dimensional (4D) flow data were acquired in porcine models (n = 11) to create individualized TEVGs. Graft shapes were optimized and manufactured by electrospinning bioresorbable material onto a metal mandrel. TEVGs were implanted 1 or 3 months postimaging, and postoperative magnetic resonance angiography and 4D flow data were obtained and segmented. Displacement between intended and observed TEVG position was determined through center of mass analysis. Hemodynamic data were obtained from 4D flow analysis. Displacement and hemodynamic data were compared using linear regression. Results: Patient-specific TEVGs were displaced between 1 and 8 mm during implantation compared with their surgically simulated, intended locations. Greater offset between intended and observed position correlated with greater wall shear stress (WSS) in postoperative vasculature ( Conclusions: Patient-specific TEVGs are designed for precise locations to help optimize hemodynamic performance. However, if TEVGs were implanted far from their intended location, worse WSS was observed. This underscores the importance of not only patient-specific design but also precision-guided implantation to optimize hemodynamics in cardiac surgery and increase reproducibility of surgical simulation.
