Oscillatory Disturbed Flow Enhances Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Markers in Endothelial Cells.
Article in Methods and protocols, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Hemodynamics significantly impact the biology of endothelial cells (ECs) lining the blood vessels. ECs are exposed to various hemodynamic forces, particularly frictional shear stress from flowing blood. While physiological flows are critical for the normal functioning of ECs, abnormal flow dynamics, known as disturbed flows, may trigger endothelial dysfunction leading to atherosclerosis and other vascular conditions. Such flows can occur due to sudden geometrical variations and vascular abnormalities in the cardiovascular system. In the current study, a microfluidic system was used to investigate the impact of different flow conditions (i.e, normal vs. disturbed) on ECs in vitro. We particularly explored the relationship between specific flow patterns and cellular pathways linked to oxidative stress and inflammation related to atherosclerosis. Here, we utilized a 2D cell culture perfusion system featuring an immortalized human vascular endothelial cell line (EA.hy926) connected to a modified peristaltic pump system to generate either steady laminar flows, representing healthy conditions, or disturbed oscillatory flows, representing diseased conditions. EA.hy926 were exposed to an oscillatory flow shear stress of 0.5 dynes/cm
