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

The passive mechanical properties of blood vessel mainly stem from the interaction of collagen and elastin fibers, but vessel constriction is attributed to smooth muscle cell (SMC) contraction. Although the passive properties of coronary arteries have been well characterized, the active biaxial stress-strain relationship is not known. Here, we carry out biaxial (inflation and axial extension) mechanical tests in right coronary arteries that provide the active coronary stress-strain relationship in circumferential and axial directions. Based on the measurements, a biaxial active strain energy function is proposed to quantify the constitutive stress-strain relationship in the physiological range of loading. The strain energy is expressed as a Gauss error function in the physiological pressure range. In K(+)-induced vasoconstriction, the mean ± SE values of outer diameters at transmural pressure of 80 mmHg were 3.41 ± 0.17 and 3.28 ± 0.24 mm at axial stretch ratios of 1.3 and 1.5, respectively, which were significantly smaller than those in Ca(2+)-free-induced vasodilated state (i.e., 4.01 ± 0.16 and 3.75 ± 0.20 mm, respectively). The mean ± SE values of the inner and outer diameters in no-load state and the opening angles in zero-stress state were 1.69 ± 0.04 mm and 2.25 ± 0.08 mm and 126 ± 22°, respectively. The active stresses have a maximal value at the passive pressure of 80-100 mmHg and at the active pressure of 140-160 mmHg. Moreover, a mechanical analysis shows a significant reduction of mean stress and strain (averaged through the vessel wall). These findings have important implications for understanding SMC mechanics.
