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

Medical advancements, particularly in ventricular assist devices (VADs), have notably advanced heart failure (HF) treatment, improving patient outcomes. However, challenges such as adverse events (strokes, bleeding and thrombosis) persist. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are instrumental in understanding VAD flow dynamics and the associated flow-induced adverse events resulting from non-physiological flow conditions in the VAD.This study aims to validate critical CFD simulation parameters for accurate VAD simulations interacting with the cardiovascular system, building upon the groundwork laid by Hahne et al. A bidirectional coupling technique was used to model dynamic (pulsatile) flow conditions of the VAD CFD interacting with the cardiovascular system. Mesh size, time steps and simulation method (URANS, LES) were systematically varied to evaluate their impact on the dynamic pump performance (dynamic
