A Study on the Acoustic Response of Pickering Perfluoropentane Droplets in Different Media.
Article in ACS omega, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) is the physical process of liquid-to-gas phase transition mediated by pressure variations in an ultrasound field. In this study, the acoustic response of novel particle-stabilized perfluoropentane droplets was studied in bulk and confined media. The oil/water interface was stabilized by cellulose nanofibers. First, their acoustic responses under idealized conditions were examined to assess their susceptibility to undergo ADV. Second, the droplets were studied in a more realistic setting and placed in a confined medium. Lastly, an imaging setup was developed and tested on the droplets. The acoustic response could be seen when the amplitude of the peak negative pressure (PNP) was above 200 kPa, suggesting that this is the vaporization pressure threshold for these droplets. Increasing the PNP resulted in a decrease in signal intensity over time, suggesting a more destructive behavior. The imaging setup was able to differentiate between the droplets and the surrounding tissue. Results obtained within this study suggest that these droplets have potential in terms of ultrasound-mediated diagnostics and therapy.
