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
purposeTo test the hypothesis that magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can quantify intratumoral superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticle uptake after nanoablation. MATERIALS AND
methodsSPIO nanoparticles functionalized with doxorubicin were synthesized. N1-S1 hepatomas were successfully induced in 17 Sprague-Dawley rats distributed into three dosage groups. Baseline tumor R2* values (the reciprocal of T2*) were determined using 7-tesla (T) MR imaging. After intravenous injection of SPIO nanoparticles, reversible electroporation (1,300 V/cm, 8 pulses, 100-μs pulse duration) was applied. Imaging of rats was performed to determine tumor R2* values after the procedure, and change in R2* (ΔR2*) was calculated. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was used to determine intratumoral iron (Fe) concentration after the procedure, which served as a proxy for SPIO nanoparticle uptake. Mean tumor Fe concentration [Fe] and ΔR2* for each subject were assessed for correlation with linear regression, and mean [Fe] for each dosage group was compared with analysis of variance.
resultsΔR2* significantly correlated with tumor SPIO nanoparticle uptake after nanoablation (r = 0.50, P = .039). On average, each 0.1-ms(-1) increase in R2* corresponded to a 0.1394-mM increase in [Fe]. There was no significant difference in mean SPIO nanoparticle uptake among dosage groups (P = .57).
conclusionsIntratumoral SPIO nanoparticle uptake after nanoablation can be successfully quantified noninvasively with 7-T MR imaging. Imaging can be used as a method to estimate localized drug delivery after nanoablation.
