Safety and Efficacy of Transform for Noninvasive Lipolysis and Circumference Reduction of the Abdomen.

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
Noninvasive body contouring has seen a precipitous rise in popularity since its advent in the early 2000s. With this rise in popularity, there has been an expansion in the types and number of noninvasive devices for muscle hypertrophy and fat lipolysis. The Transform radiofrequency and electrical muscle stimulation device is a newly introduced device for noninvasive abdominal body contouring. The present study is a prospective clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of the Transform device on abdominal circumference. Fifteen patients were enrolled and received three treatment sessions with the Transform device. On average, patients saw changes in abdominal circumference (-0.43 cm,
