History and emerging trends of computational fluid dynamics applications in atherosclerosis: a bibliometric analysis and narrative review.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: Atherosclerosis (AS), a complex cardiovascular disease closely related to hemodynamics, increasingly utilizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in its research. This study aims to systematically identify cooperation networks, track research trends, highlight current hot spots, and predict the future frontier and application of CFD in AS research. Methods: Articles regarding AS and CFD from 1992 to 2024 were identified from the Web of Science Core Collection database. CiteSpace, VOSviewer software, R package "bibliometrix," and Excel, as well as an online bibliometric analysis platform, facilitated bibliometric visualization and analysis of countries, institutions, journals, authors, references, and keywords. Results: A total of 803 papers were included, with a significant increase in annual publications, mainly concentrated in "North America," "Western Europe," and "East Asia." "The United States" (262 papers) and "Erasmus Medical Center" (29 papers) are the most productive countries and institutions. "The Annals of Biomedical Engineering" published the most papers. "Jolanda J. Wentzel" is the most productive author with 24 papers, while "Ku David N." has been cited the most. "Hemodynamics," "arteries," "wall shear stress," and "blood flow" are considered hot research topics in this field. "Fractional flow reserve," "plaques," "fluid structure interactions," "prediction," and "coronary computed tomography angiography" are important research directions for the future. Conclusion: Research on the application of CFD in the diagnosis and treatment of AS is growing steadily. This article can provide practical sources for scholars to understand key information in this field and identify potential research frontiers and hot topics in the near future.
