Directional microwave ablation in spine: experimental assessment of computational modeling.
Article in International journal of hyperthermia : the official journal of European Society for Hyperthermic Oncology, North American Hyperthermia Group, 2024. 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
backgroundDespite the theoretical advantages of treating metastatic bone disease with microwave ablation (MWA), there are few reports characterizing microwave absorption and bioheat transfer in bone. This report describes a computational modeling-based approach to simulate directional microwave ablation (dMWA) in spine, supported by MATERIALS AND
methodsA 3D computational model of microwave ablation within porcine vertebral bodies was developed.
resultsExperimental T1 and T2 temperatures were within 3-7% and 11-33% of simulated temperature values. Visible ablation zones, as indicated by grayed tissue, were smaller than those typical in other soft tissues. Posthumous MRI images of
conclusionComputational models and experimental studies illustrate the feasibility of controlled dMWA in bone tissue.
