Fiber optic probe with functional polymer composites for hyperthermia.
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We demonstrate a fiber optic probe incorporating functional polymer composites for controlled generation of photothermal effects. The probe combines carbon-based and rare-earth composites on the tip of standard multimode fibers, thus yielding a compact fiber optic photothermal probe (FOPP) whose temperature can be measured simultaneously through fluorescent thermometry. We evaluate the thermal features of the probe through experiments and numerical calculations showing that large thermal gradients are obtained within the vicinity of the heating zone. The temperatures achieved with the FOPP are within the ranges of interest for hyperthermia and can be attained using low optical powers (< 280 mW).
