Acoustic Waves in Axonal Membrane and Caveolins are the New Targets for Pain Treatment with High Frequency Ultrasound.

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
Reciprocal interaction between electrical and mechanical waves observed in axonal membrane during its excitation leads to a paradigm shift in pain research making the uncoupling of electro-mechanical signals an interesting target in pain treatment. This uncoupling can be realized either through direct disturbance of the mechanical surface waves in axonal membrane or through shifting of the thermodynamic state of this membrane far from its phase transition point. Both effects can be effectively realized through application of the very high frequency ultrasound waves. Additional target for application of ultrasound in pain treatment is the caveolin-1, which is abundantly present in Schwann cells as well as in the non-axonal tissues. Both targets demonstrate frequency-dependent reactions, thus making a very high frequency ultrasound a promising treatment modality in pain treatment.
