It is well accepted that blood flow in the human aorta is spiral by nature, with beneficial impacts for the cardiovascular system in the form of improved haemodynamics and efficient perfusion. This study investigates the effect of aortic spiral blood flow on wall shear stress (WSS) in computer-generated models of the left main trunk (LMT), also known as left main coronary artery, with varying take-off angle, stenosis severity and eccentricity. The results show that the spirality effect causes a substantial reduction in maximum WSS (WSS max ), average WSS (WSS ave ) and size of regions with low WSS. The effects of spiral flow on WSS max become more significant with increasing LMT take-off angle and stenosis eccentricity, and they become less significant with increasing stenosis severity. The aortic spiral blood flow intensity, LMT take-off angle, stenosis severity and eccentricity statistically significantly predict the WSS; however, the strongest predictor of WSS is stenosis severity (F(4, 399) = 3653.85, p < 0.001 for WSS max and F(4, 399) = 913.46, p < 0.001 for WSS ave ), followed by LMT take-off angle (F(4, 399) = 582.735, p < 0.001 for WSS max and F(4, 399) = 163.16, p < 0.001 for WSS ave ), stenosis eccentricity (F(4, 399) = 230.15, p < 0.001 for WSS max and F(4, 399) = 52.94, p < 0.001 for WSS ave ) and blood flow spirality (F(4, 399) = 112.37, p < 0.001 for WSS max and F(4, 399) = 32.18, p < 0.001 for WSS ave ). Our findings suggest that naturally or artificially induced spiral flow in the aorta potentially has atheroprotective effects in the LMT.
