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

purposeIn this work we investigate a mathematical model in order to reproduce experimental data of arterial compliance under the action of vasoconstrictors and vasodilators related to pharmacological studies.

methodsThe considered model is a 3D-shell with active fibers. Model parameters are identified by means of an optimization procedure.

resultsThe resulting model was able to reproduce the experimental data and predict the system behavior in scenarios other than those used for the parameter estimation. This enables the assessment of different scenarios concerning the impact of the molecules on the active or passive contributions of the arterial wall.

conclusionThe results suggest that smooth muscle cell contraction modulates stiffness through direct fiber-induced regulation of vascular tone, while parameters related to the passive arterial wall component remain relatively stable across different vasoactive scenarios.
