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

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been utilized to calculate hemodynamic parameters in anterior communicating artery aneurysm (AComA), which is located at a junction between left and right A1 and A2 segments. However, complete or half circle of Willis (CoW) models are used indiscriminately. This study aims to suggest recommendations for determining suitable CoW model. Five patient-specific CoW models with AComA were used, and each model was divided into complete, left-half, and right-half models. After validating the CFD using a flow experiment, the hemodynamic parameters and flow patterns in five AComAs were compared. In four out of five cases, inflow from one A1 side had a dominant influence on the AComA, while both left and right A1 sides affected the AComA in the remaining case. Also, the average difference in time-averaged wall shear stress between the complete and half models for four cases was 4.6%, but it was 62% in the other case. The differences in the vascular resistances of left and right A1 and A2 segments greatly influenced the flow patterns in the AComA. These results may help to enhance clinicians' understanding of blood flow in the brain, leading to improvements in diagnosis and treatment of cerebral aneurysms.
