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

In many applications, microbubbles (MBs) are encapsulated by a lipid coating to increase their stability. However, the complex behavior of the lipid coating including buckling and rupture sophisticates the dynamics of the MBs and as a result the dynamics of the lipid coated MBs (LCMBs) are not well understood. Here, we investigate the nonlinear behavior of the LCMBs by analyzing their bifurcation structure as a function of acoustic pressure. We show that, the LC can enhance the generation of period 2 (P2), P3, higher order subharmonics (SH), superharmonics and chaos at very low excitation pressures (e.g. 1 kPa). For LCMBs sonicated by their SH resonance frequency and in line with experimental observations with increasing pressure, P2 oscillations exhibit three stages: generation at low acoustic pressures, disappearance and re-generation. Within non-destructive oscillation regimes and by pressure amplitude increase, LCMBs can also exhibit two saddle node (SN) bifurcations resulting in possible abrupt enhancement of the scattered pressure. The first SN resembles the pressure dependent resonance phenomenon in uncoated MBs and the second SN resembles the pressure dependent SH resonance. Depending on the initial surface tension of the LCMBs, the nonlinear behavior may also be suppressed for a wide range of excitation pressures.
