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

Background: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a new medical method combining medicine and science. The aim of this study is to summarize and analyze the application of CFD in adult aortic diseases. Methods: This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A search in the PubMed, Cochrane Library and Chinese databases identified 47 highly relevant articles. Studies were included if they assessed biomechanical markers and their potential association with progression or rupture of aortic aneurysms or dissections. Results: There are no randomized controlled trials to examine the direct relationship between all biomechanical parameters and aortic disease progression or rupture. Wall stress and peak wall rupture risk can predict the risk of aortic aneurysm rupture using biomechanics, which is more accurate than the prediction based on "diameter" alone. Areas with lower time averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS) and higher oscillatory shear index (OSI) are at risk for further aortic expansion or dissection. Higher relative residence time (RRT) area can predict platelet activation and thrombosis. In addition, pressure, flow field and other indicators can also roughly predict the risk of aortic disease progression. Conclusions: Contemporary evidence suggests that CFD can provide additional hemodynamic parameters, which have the potential to predict the progression of aortic lesions, the effect of surgical intervention, and prognosis.
