Modeling of photoelastic imaging of mechanical stresses in transparent solids mimicking kidney stones.
Article in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03811171 (A Study of the SonoMotion Break Wave), which is not on this map. Cited by 7 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.

Abstract
Theoretical and numerical models were developed to calculate the polariscopic integrated light intensity that forms a projection of the dynamic stress within an axisymmetric elastic object. Although the model is general, this paper addressed its application to measurements of stresses in model kidney stones from a burst wave lithotripter for stone fragmentation. The stress was calculated using linear elastic equations, and the light propagation was modeled in the instantaneous case by integrating over the volume of the stone. The numerical model was written in finite differences. The resulting images agreed well with measured images. The measured images corresponded to the maximum shear stress distribution, although other stresses were also plotted. Comparison of the modeled and observed polariscope images enabled refinement of the photoelastic constant by minimizing the error between the calculated and measured fields. These results enable quantification of the stress within the polariscope images, determination of material properties, and the modes and mechanisms of stress production within a kidney stone. Such a model may help in interpreting elastic waves in structures, such as stones, toward improving lithotripsy procedures.
