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

Magnetic resonance imaging-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MRI-guided HIFU) is a non-invasive strategy of diagnosis and treatment that is applicable in tumor ablation. Here, we prepared a multifunctional nanotheranostic agent (SSPN) by loading perfluorohexane (PFH) and superparamagnetic iron oxides (SPIOs) in silica lipid for MRI-guided HIFU ablation of tumors. PFH was introduced to improve the ablation effect of HIFU and the ultrasound (US) contrast performance. Due to its liquid-to-gas transition characteristic, it is sensitive to temperature. SPIOs were used as an MRI contrast agent. Silica lipid was selected because it is a more stable carrier material compared with normal lipid. Previous studies have shown that SSPNs have good biocompatibility, stability, imaging, and therapeutic effects. Therefore, this system is expected to develop an important therapeutic agent for MRI-guided HIFU therapy against tumors.
