Computational modeling of left ventricular flow using PC-CMR-derived four-dimensional wall motion.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intracardiac hemodynamics plays a crucial role in the onset and development of cardiac and valvular diseases. Simulations of blood flow in the left ventricle (LV) have provided valuable insight into assessing LV hemodynamics. While fully coupled fluid-solid modelings of the LV remain challenging due to the complex passive-active behavior of the LV wall myocardium, the integration of imaging-driven quantification of structural motion with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling in the LV holds the promise of feasible and clinically translatable characterization of patient-specific LV hemodynamics. In this study, we propose to integrate two magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modalities with the moving-boundary CFD method to characterize intracardiac LV hemodynamics. Our method uses the standard cine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images to estimate four-dimensional myocardial motion, eliminating the need for involved myocardial material modeling to capture LV wall behavior. In conjunction with CMR, phase contrast-MRI (PC-MRI) was used to measure temporal blood inflow rates at the mitral orifice, serving as an additional boundary condition. Flow patterns, including velocity streamlines, vortex rings, and kinetic energy, were characterized and compared to the available data. Moreover, relationships between LV wall kinematic markers and flow characteristics were determined without myocardial material modeling and using a non-rigid image registration (NRIR) method. The fidelity of the simulation was quantitatively evaluated by validating the flow rate at the aortic outflow tract against respective PC-MRI measures. The proposed methodology offers a novel and feasible toolset that works with standard PC-CMR protocols to improve the clinical assessment of LV characteristics in prognostic studies and surgical planning.
