Altered shear stress of blood flow causes plasma membrane damage in endothelial cells.

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
The endothelial lining of blood vessels faces many mechanical challenges, including the shear stress (SS) of blood flow, which render it prone to cell membrane ruptures. Such ruptures must be repaired efficiently to maintain cellular integrity and proper vascular function. However, whether SS of blood flow can indeed affect plasma membrane integrity of endothelial cells and whether any ruptures occurring are repaired is not understood. Here, we show that alterations in the SS of fluid flow induce membrane damage in human endothelial cells, and membrane ruptures increase with increasing shear alterations. Furthermore, we show that inherent SS disturbances at aortic branches in mice are associated with endothelial membrane wounds, which are not observed in regions of laminar flow. We also show that endothelial membrane damages inflicted by shear stress alterations are repaired by a Ca
