Persistent non-homeostatic remodeling of aortic collagen following a brief episode of hypertension: A computational study.

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
The healthy adult aorta exhibits a remarkable homeostatic ability to respond to sustained changes in hemodynamic loads under many circumstances, but this mechanical homeostasis can be compromised or lost in natural aging and diverse pathological processes. Herein, we investigate persistent non-homeostatic changes in the composition and mechanical properties of the thoracic aorta in adult wild-type mice following 14 days of angiotensin II-induced hypertension. We employ a multiscale computational model of arterial growth and remodeling driven by mechanosensitive and angiotensin II-related cell signaling pathways. We find that experimentally observed findings can only be recapitulated computationally if the collagen deposited during the transient period of hypertension has altered properties (deposition stretch, fiber angle, crosslinking) compared with the collagen produced in the original homeostatic state. Some of these changes are predicted to persist for at least six months after blood pressure is restored to normal levels, consistent with the experimental findings.
