Acoustic radiation force impulse-induced lung hemorrhage: investigating the relationship with peak rarefactional pressure amplitude and mechanical index in rabbits.
Article in Journal of medical ultrasonics (2001), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThe safety of acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) elastography, which applies higher acoustic power with a longer pulse duration (PD) than conventional diagnostic ultrasound, is yet to be verified. We assessed the ARFI-induced lung injury risk and its relationship with peak rarefactional pressure amplitude (PRPA) and mechanical index (MI).
methodsEighteen and two rabbits were included in the ARFI (0.3-ms push pulses) and sham groups, respectively. A 5.2-MHz linear probe was applied to the subcostal area and aimed at both lungs through the liver for 30 ARFI emissions. The derated PRPA varied among the six ARFI groups-0.80 MPa, 1.13 MPa, 1.33 MPa, 1.70 MPa, 1.91 MPa, and 2.00 MPa, respectively.
resultsThe occurrence of lung hemorrhage and the mean lesion area among all samples in the seven groups were 0/6, 0/6, 1/6 (1.7 mm
conclusionThis study demonstrated that the occurrence and severity of ARFI-induced lung hemorrhage increased with a rise in PRPA under clinical conditions in rabbits. This indicates a potential risk of lung injury due to ARFI elastography, especially when ARFI is unintentionally directed to the lungs during liver, heart, or breast examinations.
