A Modular, Kerf-Minimizing Approach for Therapeutic Ultrasound Phased Array Construction.
Article in IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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 novel method for fabricating a modular, kerf-minimizing histotripsy phased array was developed and tested. The method utilizes arbitrarily shaped elements, 3-D printing, water jet cutting, and a thin, 125- [Formula: see text] electrically insulating epoxy coating to maximize aperture utilization while allowing for replacement of individual transducer modules. The method was used to fabricate a 750-kHz truncated circular aperture array (165 mm ×234 mm) transducer with a focal length of 142 mm. The aperture was segmented into 260 arc-shaped modular elements, each approximately 11.5 mm ×11.5 mm, arranged in concentric rings. The resulting aperture utilization was 92%. The full-width-half-maximum (FWHM) focal zone of the array was measured to be 1.6 mm ×1.1 mm ×4.5 mm, and the FWHM electrical steering range was measured to be 38.5 mm ×33 mm 40 mm. The array was estimated to be capable of generating approximately 120-MPa peak negative pressure at the geometric focus. In addition, the array was used to ablate a 5-cm3 volume of tissue with electric focal steering.
