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

backgroundHigh-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) serves as a noninvasive stereotactic system for the ablation of brain metastases; however, treatments are limited to simple geometries and energy delivery is limited by the high acoustic attenuation of the calvarium. Minimally-invasive magnetic resonance-guided robotically-assisted (MRgRA) needle-based therapeutic ultrasound (NBTU) using multislice volumetric 2-D magnetic resonance thermal imaging (MRTI) overcomes these limitations and has potential to produce less collateral tissue damage than current methods.

objectiveTo correlate multislice volumetric 2-D MRTI volumes with histologically confirmed regions of tissue damage in MRgRA NBTU.

methodsSeven swine underwent a total of 8 frontal MRgRA NBTU lesions. MRTI ablation volumes were compared to histologic tissue damage on brain sections stained with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC). Bland-Altman analyses and correlation trends were used to compare MRTI and TTC ablation volumes.

resultsData from the initial and third swine's ablations were excluded due to sub-optimal tissue staining. For the remaining ablations (

conclusionWe used a volumetric MRTI technique to accurately track thermal changes during MRgRA NBTU in preparation for human trials. Improved volumetric coverage with MRTI enhanced our delivery of therapy and has far-reaching implications for focused ultrasound in the broader clinical setting.
