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

introductionPulmonary embolism (PE) is one of the most prevalent diseases amid hospitalized patients taking many people's lives annually. This phenomenon, however, has not been investigated via numerical simulations.

methodsIn this study, an image-based model of pulmonary arteries has been constructed from a 44-year-old man's computed tomography images. The fluid-structure interaction method was used to simulate the motion of the blood clot. In this regard, Navier-Stokes equations, as the governing equations, have been solved in an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) formulation.

resultsAccording to our results, the velocity of visco-hyperelastic model of the emboli was relatively higher than the emboli with hyperelastic model, despite their similar behavioral pattern. The stresses on the clot were also investigated and showed that the blood clot continuously sustained stresses greater than 165 Pa over an about 0.01 s period, which can cause platelets to leak and make the clot grow or tear apart.

conclusionsIt could be concluded that in silico analysis of the cardiovascular diseases initiated from clot motion in blood flow is a valuable tool for a better understanding of these phenomena.
