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

An inexpensive, accurate focused ultrasound stereotactic targeting method guided by pretreatment magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images for murine brain models is presented. An uncertainty of each sub-component of the stereotactic system was analyzed. The entire system was calibrated using clot phantoms. The targeting accuracy of the system was demonstrated with an in vivo mouse glioblastoma (GBM) model. The accuracy was quantified by the absolute distance difference between the prescribed and ablated points visible on the pre treatment and posttreatment MR images, respectively. A precalibration phantom study ( N = 6 ) resulted in an error of 0.32 ± 0.31, 0.72 ± 0.16, and 1.06 ± 0.38 mm in axial, lateral, and elevational axes, respectively. A postcalibration phantom study ( N = 8 ) demonstrated a residual error of 0.09 ± 0.01, 0.15 ± 0.09, and 0.47 ± 0.18 mm in axial, lateral, and elevational axes, respectively. The calibrated system showed significantly reduced ( ) error of 0.20 ± 0.21, 0.34 ± 0.24, and 0.28 ± 0.21 mm in axial, lateral, and elevational axes, respectively, in the in vivo GBM tumor-bearing mice ( N = 10 ).
