Analytical description of the transmembrane voltage induced on arbitrarily oriented ellipsoidal and cylindrical cells.

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
We present an analytical equation for the transmembrane voltage (Deltaphi) induced by a homogeneous AC field on arbitrarily oriented cells of the general ellipsoidal shape. The equation generalizes the Schwan equation for spherical cells and describes the dependence of Deltaphi on field frequency, cell size and shape, membrane capacitance, conductivities of cytoplasm, membrane and external medium, the location of the membrane site under consideration, and on the orientation of the cell with respect to the field. The derivation is based on the fact that the cytoplasm and the Maxwellian equivalent body of the whole cell are both of a general ellipsoidal shape and must thus exhibit constant local fields. The constant fields allow for a relatively simple description of the potentials on the internal and external membrane sides, leading to Deltaphi. For this, the properties of cytoplasm, membrane, and external medium have been introduced into a special, finite element model. We found that Deltaphi can be unambiguously defined for non-spherical cells, provided that the membrane thickness is thin in comparison to the cell dimensions.
