Comparative Analysis of Temperature Rise between Convective Heat Transfer Method and Computational Fluid Dynamics Method in an Anatomy-Based Left Atrium Model during Pulsed Field Ablation: A Computational Study.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
The non-thermal effects are considered one of the prominent advantages of pulsed field ablation (PFA). However, at higher PFA doses, the temperature rise in the tissue during PFA may exceed the thermal damage threshold, at which time intracardiac pulsatile blood flow plays a crucial role in suppressing this temperature rise. This study aims to compare the effect of heat dissipation of the different methods in simulating the pulsatile blood flow during PFA. This study first constructed an anatomy-based left atrium (LA) model and then applied the convective heat transfer (CHT) method and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method to the model, respectively, and the thermal convective coefficients used in the CHT method are 984 (W/m
