High-Frequency Excitation and Surface Temperature Analysis of Breast Tissue for Detection of Anomaly.
Article in BioMed research international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Techniques used for breast cancer detection usually incorporate Infrared Thermography (IRT) to locate abnormal hotspots or asymmetry in a thermal texture map. This can be unreliable due to various individual differences from one person to another. In this paper, a detection method that is independent of the aforementioned limitations is proposed. This technique is a combination of thermal imaging and high-frequency excitation. This technique is based on the fact that the differences in electromagnetic and thermal properties of abnormal (malignant) tissue and the surrounding normal tissue will result in a noticeable difference in temperature increase after exposure to high-frequency excitation. A three-dimensional (3-D) finite-element method (FEM) has been used to simulate the thermal behavior of breast tissue exposed to antenna excitations. Finally, the effectiveness of this technique was tested in a series of experiments using a life-sized breast phantom.
