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

Maintaining a confluent, antithrombotic endothelium on cardiovascular biomaterial surfaces remains a major barrier to long-term hemocompatibility, as endothelial cells (ECs) rapidly denude under supraphysiological shear in prosthetic devices. Here, we hypothesized that mesoscale surface geometry (~100-200 μm) could reorganize near-wall hemodynamics, preserving endothelial coverage and function under extreme shear. Engineered microtrenches were introduced onto an implant biomaterial to generate spatially defined shear environments. Under supraphysiological near-wall shear (~250 dyn/cm
