Analysis of gold nanospheres, nano ellipsoids, nanorods, and effect of core-shell structures for hyperthermia treatment.

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
Hyperthermia (HT) is a technique for treating malignancies by raising the temperature of the defected tissues. This technique has been used as a treatment to raise tumor area temperatures between 42 °C to 48 °C. Hyperthermia penetrates deeper malignant cells by heating the region of interest when magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are exposed to an externally induced magnetic field of the incident wave. In this work, numerical analysis was used to examine the temporal and spatial temperature distributions within a tumor. The temperature field was analyzed using the mass transfer and diffusion theories in the interstitial tissue. A bio-heating module in COMSOL Multi-Physics was used for different types of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) including nanorods, nanospheres, and nano-ellipsoids with different shapes. The objective of this study is to analyze the use of AuNPs for hyperthermia. The results show that AuNPs achieve a maximum temperature for Au nanorods as compared to nano ellipsoids and nanospheres. The Au NPs achieve thermal equilibrium after 0.5 μs and are effective for hyperthermia treatment. The results describe the effect of nanoparticle shape and surface coating on thermal absorption around the nanoparticle in hyperthermia. The significance of Au NPs for hyperthermia is explained. It is expected that this study will be helpful in the future for hyperthermia treatment.
