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 mechanical properties of soft biological tissues can be characterized non-invasively by magnetic resonance elastography (MRE). In MRE, shear wave fields are induced by vibration, imaged by magnetic resonance imaging, and inverted to estimate tissue properties in terms of the parameters of an underlying material model. Most MRE studies assume an isotropic material model; however, biological tissue is often anisotropic with a fibrous structure, and some tissues contain two or more families of fibers-each with different orientations and properties. Motivated by the prospect of using MRE to characterize such tissues, this paper describes the propagation of shear waves in soft fibrous material with two unequal fiber families. Shear wave speeds are expressed in terms of material parameters, and the effect of each parameter on the shear wave speeds is investigated. Analytical expressions of wave speeds are confirmed by finite element simulations of shear wave transmission with various polarization directions. This study supports the feasibility of estimating parameters of soft fibrous tissues with two unequal fiber families in vivo from local shear wave speeds and advances the prospects for the mechanical characterization of such biological tissues by MRE.
