Bone remodeling following MR-guided focused ultrasound: Evaluation with HR-pQCT and FTIR.
Article in Bone, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a novel non-invasive ablation technique that uses focused sound energy to destroy focal tumors, primarily via heat deposition. It is widely used for palliation of pain from bone metastases and has also recently gained popularity as a technique for ablation of benign bone tumors and facet degenerative joint disease (rhizotomy). Clinically, in a subset of patients who have undergone MRgFUS of bone, a variety of treatment responses have been noted on follow-up imaging, including focal sclerosis within the target lesion or more exuberant proliferative changes associated with the periosteum. In this study, high resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HR-pQCT) was used to evaluate remodeling of bone following ablation in a swine model of MRgFUS and compared to samples from a control, non-treated femur. Within each treated femur, two lesions were created: a higher energy focused ultrasound dose was used for one lesion compared to a lower energy dose for the second lesion. Exuberant, extra-cortical bone formation was detected at the higher energy ablation zones, with volumes ranging from 340 mm
