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

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart disease. Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) accounts for the majority of aortic stenosis (AS) cases. Half of the patients diagnosed with AS have a BAV, which has an accelerated progression rate. This study aims to develop a computational modeling approach of both the calcification progression in BAV, and its biomechanical response incorporating fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations during the disease progression. The calcification is patient-specifically reconstructed from Micro-CT images of excised calcified BAV leaflets, and processed with a novel reverse calcification technique that predicts prior states of CAVD using a density-based criterion, resulting in a multilayered calcified structure. Four progressive multilayered calcified BAV models were generated: healthy, mild, moderate, and severe, and were modeled by FSI simulations during the full cardiac cycle. A valve apparatus model, composed of the excised calcified BAV leaflets, was tested in an in-vitro pulse duplicator, to validate the severe model. The healthy model was validated against echocardiography scans. Progressive AS was characterized by higher systolic jet flow velocities (2.08, 2.3, 3.37, and 3.85 m s
