Bipolar radiofrequency track cautery during abdominal biopsies: teaching points and lessons learned.
Review in Abdominal radiology (New York), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Abdominal percutaneous needle biopsies are commonly performed minimally invasive procedures to obtain tissue samples for histopathological diagnosis. Severe post-biopsy bleeding is uncommon but can be associated with prolonged hospitalization, additional interventions, morbidity, and death. Many factors may increase bleeding risk and various peri-procedural and intra-procedural strategies may minimize bleeding risk. Bipolar radiofrequency track cautery is one method that may reduce the risk of post-biopsy bleeding or tumor seeding. This paper offers an illustrative case-based review of teaching points and lessons learned in our experience using a commercially available bipolar radiofrequency track cautery device during percutaneous image-guided abdominal biopsies.
