A New Conformal Penetrating Heating Strategy for Atherosclerotic Plaque.
Article in Bioengineering (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
(1) Background: A combination of radiofrequency (RF) volumetric heating and convection cooling has been proposed to realize plaque ablation while protecting the endothelial layer. However, the depth of the plaque and the thickness of the endothelial layer vary in different atherosclerotic lesions. Current techniques cannot be used to achieve penetrating heating for atherosclerosis with two targets (the specified protection depth and the ablation depth). (2) Methods: A tissue-mimicking phantom heating experiment simulating atherosclerotic plaque ablation was conducted to investigate the effects of the control parameters, the target temperature (
