Inverse heat transfer analysis in detecting tissue optical properties using laser.
Article in Lasers in medical science, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A new methodology has been proposed to measure optical properties of homogeneous tissue where a laser beam is used to induce heat to a tissue. The induced heat increased the temperature inside the tissue, which is detected by a thermocouple. These readings are compared with that obtained from the solution of the finite element solution that used iterative values of optical properties in determining temperature distribution. The two temperature distributions are used to determine tissue optical properties using the Levenberg-Marquardt iteration. An accurate result is obtained in determining absorption coefficient and reduced scattering coefficient. The work is extended to obtain three parameters (i.e., absorption coefficient, scattering coefficient, and anisotropy). The only limitation is that the temperature readings have to be measured with a high-accuracy thermocouple (i.e., less than 0.4% of maximum-recorded temperature).
