A reduced aperture allows for transcranial focus localization at lower pressure.
Article in JASA express letters, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Localizing the focus during transcranial focused ultrasound procedures is important to ensure accurate targeting of specific brain regions and interpretation of results. Magnetic resonance acoustic radiation force imaging uses the displacement induced by the ultrasound focus in the brain to localize the beam, but the high pressure required to displace brain tissue may cause damage or confounds during subsequent neuromodulatory experiments. Here, reduced apertures were applied to a phased array transducer to generate comparable displacement to the full aperture but with 20% lower free field pressure.
