Dynamic Electroporation Model Evaluation on Rabbit Tissues.
Article in Annals of biomedical engineering, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Biological electroporation is a process of opening pores in the cell membrane when exposed to intense electric fields. This work provides results for validation of a dynamic model of electroporation on biological tissues. Computational simulations were carried out and results for the electrical current through the tissue and increase of the tissue temperature were compared to experimental results. Two calculation methods were used: Equivalent Circuit Method and Finite Element Method. With Equivalent Circuit Method the dielectric dispersion present in biological tissues was included. Liver, kidney and heart of rabbit were used in the experiments. Voltage pulse protocols and voltage ramps were applied using stainless steel needles electrodes. There is good agreement between the simulated and experimental results with mean errors below 15%, with the simulated results within the experimental standard deviation. Only for the protocol with fundamental frequency of 50 kHz, the simulation performed by the Finite Element Method using a commercial software did not correctly represent the current, with errors reaching 50%. The justification for the error found is due to the dielectric dispersion that was not included in this simulator.
