Real-Time Internal Steam Pop Detection during Radiofrequency Ablation with a Radiofrequency Ablation Needle Integrated with a Temperature and Pressure Sensor: Preclinical and Clinical Pilot Tests.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
A radiofrequency ablation (RFA) needle integrated with a temperature sensor (T-sensor) and pressure sensor (P-sensor) is designed and utilized for real-time internal steam pop monitoring during RFA. The characteristics of the sensor-integrated RFA needle (sRFA-needle) are investigated quantitatively using a pressure chamber system, and the feasibility and usability of the needle in preclinical and clinical trials is demonstrated. The sharp changes in the temperature and normalized pressure sensor signals induced by the abrupt release of hot and high-pressure steam can be clearly monitored during the steam pop phenomena. The basic mechanism of the preliminary steam pop is hypothesized and verified using in situ ultrasound imaging data and computational analysis data of the RFA procedure. Moreover, the usability of the system in clinical trials is investigated, and the steam pop phenomena during the RFA procedure are detected using T-sensor and P-sensor. The results confirm that the sensor integration on the medical needle can provide critical data for safer and more effective medical practices.
