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

The theory of small-amplitude waves propagating across a blood vessel junction has been well established with linear analysis. In this study, we consider the propagation of large-amplitude, nonlinear waves (i.e. shocks and rarefactions) through a junction from a parent vessel into two (identical) daughter vessels using a combination of three approaches: numerical computations using a Godunov method with patching across the junction, analysis of a nonlinear Riemann problem in the neighbourhood of the junction and an analytical theory which extends the linear analysis to the following order in amplitude. A unified picture emerges: an abrupt (prescribed) increase in pressure at the inlet to the parent vessel generates a propagating shock wave along the parent vessel which interacts with the junction. For modest driving, this shock wave divides into propagating shock waves along the two daughter vessels and reflects a rarefaction wave back towards the inlet. However, for larger driving the reflected rarefaction wave becomes transcritical, generating an additional shock wave. Just beyond criticality this new shock wave has zero speed, pinned to the junction, but for further increases in driving this additional shock divides into two new propagating shock waves in the daughter vessels.
