1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

This study aims to describe and evaluate the performance of a new device for magnetic hyperthermia that can produce an alternating magnetic field with adjustable frequency without the need to change capacitors from the resonant bank, as required by other commercial devices. This innovation, among others, is based on using a capacitator bank that dynamically adjusts the frequency. To validate the novel system, a series of experiments were conducted using commercial magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) demonstrating the device's effectiveness and allowing us to identify new challenges associated with the design of more powerful devices. A computational model was also used to validate the device and to allow us to determine the best system configuration. The results obtained are consistent with those from other studies using the same MNPs but with magnetic hyperthermia commercial equipment, confirming the good performance of the developed device (e.g., consistent SAR values between 1.37 and 10.80 W/gMNP were obtained, and experiments reaching temperatures above 43 °C were also obtained). This equipment offers additional advantages, including being economical, user-friendly, and portable.
