Mathematical Modeling of Breast Tumor Destruction Using Fast Heating during Radiofrequency Ablation.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
In oncology, hyperthermia is understood as a planned, controlled technique of heating cancerous changes in order to destroy their cells or stop their growth. In clinical practice, hyperthermia is used in combination with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or immunological therapy. During the hyperthermia, the tissue is typically exposed to a temperature in the range of 40-45 °C, the exception is thermoablation, during which the temperatures reach much higher values. Thermoablation is characterized by the use of high temperatures up to 90 °C. The electrode using the radiofrequency is inserted into the central area of the tumor. Interstitial thermoablation is used to treat, among others, breast and brain cancer. The therapy consists of inducing coagulation necrosis in an area that is heated to very high temperatures. Mathematical modeling is based on the use of a coupled thermo-electric model, in which the electric field is described by means of the Laplace equation, while the temperature field is based on the Pennes equation. Coupling occurs at the level of the additional source function in the Pennes equation. The temperature field obtained in this way makes it possible to calculate the Arrhenius integral as a determinant of the destruction of biological tissue. As a result of numerical calculations regarding the temperature field and the Arrhenius integral, it can be concluded that, with the help of numerical tools and mathematical modeling, one can simulate the process of destroying cancerous tissue.
