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

Needle and fiber-optic hydrophones have frequency-dependent sensitivity, which can result in substantial distortion of nonlinear or broadband pressure pulses. A rigid cylinder model for needle and fiber-optic hydrophones was used to predict this distortion. The model was compared with measurements of complex sensitivity for a fiber-optic hydrophone and three needle hydrophones with sensitive element sizes ( ) of 100, 200, 400, and . Theoretical and experimental sensitivities agreed to within 12 ± 3% [root-mean-square (RMS) normalized magnitude ratio] and 8° ± 3° (RMS phase difference) for the four hydrophones over the range from 1 to 10 MHz. The model predicts that distortions in peak positive pressure can exceed 20% when and spectral index (SI) >7% and can exceed 40% when and SI >14%, where is the wavelength of the fundamental component and SI is the fraction of power spectral density contained in harmonics. The model predicts that distortions in peak negative pressure can exceed 15% when . Measurements of pulse distortion using a 2.25 MHz source and needle hydrophones with , 400, and agreed with the model to within a few percent on the average for SI values up to 14%. This paper 1) identifies conditions for which needle and fiber-optic hydrophones produce substantial distortions in acoustic pressure pulse measurements and 2) offers a practical deconvolution method to suppress these distortions.
