Oscillatory shear stress-driven endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition: a critical mechanical signal transduction mechanism in atherosclerosis progression.
Review in Cell death discovery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Atherosclerosis constitutes the primary pathological basis for cardiovascular diseases. It most commonly develops at the branching and curved regions of blood vessels. The disturbed blood flow in these regions can generate oscillatory shear stress (OSS). Endothelial cells exposed to OSS progressively undergo a transformation into mesenchymal cells, a process known as endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT). EndMT is a critical event in the development of atherosclerosis. OSS promotes the occurrence of EndMT through multiple pathways. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the phenomena and mechanisms of OSS-induced EndMT, offering theoretical insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of atherosclerosis and corresponding therapeutic strategies.
