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

During the past two decades, tissue elasticity has been extensively studied and has been used in clinical disease diagnosis. But biological soft tissues are viscoelastic in nature. Therefore, they should be simultaneously characterized in terms of elasticity and viscosity. In addition, the mechanical properties of soft tissues are temperature dependent. However, how the temperature influences the shear wave dispersion and the viscoelasticity of soft tissue are still unclear. The aim of this study is to compare viscoelasticity of fat emulsion phantom with different temperature using acoustic radiation force elasticity imaging method. In our experiment, we produced four proportions of ultrasonic phantom by adding fat emulsion gelatin. Through adjusting the component of the fat emulsion, we change the viscoelasticity of the ultrasonic phantom. We used verasonics system to gather data and voigt model to fit the elasticity and viscosity value of the ultrasonic phantom we made. The influence of temperature to the ultrasonic phantom also measured in our study. The results show that the addition of fat emulsion to the phantom can increase the viscosity of the phantom, and the shear wave phase velocity decreases gradually at each frequency with the temperature increases, which provides a new material for the production of viscoelastic phantom.
