From Heart to Abdominal Aorta: Integrating Multi-Modal Cardiac Imaging Derived Haemodynamic Biomarkers for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Risk Stratification, Surveillance, Pre-Operative Assessment and Therapeutic Decision-Making.

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
Recent advances in cardiovascular imaging have revolutionized the assessment and management of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) through the integration of sophisticated haemodynamic biomarkers. This comprehensive review evaluates the clinical utility and mechanistic significance of multiple biomarkers in AAA pathogenesis, progression, and treatment outcomes. Advanced cardiac imaging modalities, including four-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (4D MRI), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and specialized echocardiography, enable precise quantification of critical haemodynamic parameters. Wall shear stress (WSS) emerges as a fundamental biomarker, with values below 0.4 Pa indicating pathological conditions and increased risk for aneurysm progression. Time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), typically maintaining values above 1.5 Pa in healthy arterial segments, provides crucial information about sustained haemodynamic forces affecting the vessel wall. The oscillatory shear index (OSI), ranging from 0 (unidirectional flow) to 0.5 (purely oscillatory flow), quantifies directional changes in WSS during cardiac cycles. In AAA, elevated OSI values between 0.3 and 0.4 correlate with disturbed flow patterns and accelerated disease progression. The relative residence time (RRT), combining TAWSS and OSI, identifies regions prone to thrombosis, with values exceeding 2-3 Pa
