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
When returning blood to the pulmonary artery (PA), the inflow jet interferes with local hemodynamics. We investigated the consequences for several connection scenarios using transient computational fluid dynamics simulations. The PA was derived from CT data. Three aspects were varied: graft flow rate, anastomosis location, and inflow jet path length from anastomosis site to impingement on the PA wall. Lateral anastomosis locations caused abnormal flow distribution between the left and right PA. The central location provided near-physiological distribution but induced higher wall shear stress (WSS). All effects were most pronounced at high graft flows. A central location is beneficial regarding flow distribution, but the resulting high WSS might promote detachment of local thromboembolisms or influence the autonomic nervous innervation. Lateral locations, depending on jet path length, result in lower WSS at the cost of an unfavorable flow distribution that could promote pulmonary vasculature changes. Case-specific decisions and further research are necessary.
