Clinical translation of abdominal histotripsy: a review of preclinical studies in large animal models.
Review in International journal of hyperthermia : the official journal of European Society for Hyperthermic Oncology, North American Hyperthermia Group, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Histotripsy is an emerging noninvasive, non-thermal, and non-ionizing focused ultrasound (US) therapy that can be used to destroy targeted tissue. Histotripsy has evolved from early laboratory prototypes to clinical systems which have been comprehensively evaluated in the preclinical environment to ensure safe translation to human use. This review summarizes the observations and results from preclinical histotripsy studies in the liver, kidney, and pancreas. Key findings from these studies include the ability to make a clinically relevant treatment zone in each organ with maintained collagenous architecture, potentially allowing treatments in areas not currently amenable to thermal ablation. Treatments across organ capsules have proven safe, including in anticoagulated models which may expand patients eligible for treatment or eliminate the risk associated with taking patients off anti-coagulation. Treatment zones are well-defined with imaging and rapidly resorb, which may allow improved evaluation of treatment zones for residual or recurrent tumor. Understanding the effects of histotripsy in animal models will help inform physicians adopting histotripsy for human clinical use.
