Effect of ultrasonic burst microbubbles on microwave coagulation hemostasis in a pig model of hepatic hemorrhage.

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
To investigate the hemostatic efficacy of ultrasound in flash mode and/or microbubbles-assisted microwave coagulation for active liver hemorrhage. Thirty miniature pigs were randomly divided into five groups. Active hepatic hemorrhage was induced under ultrasound guidance. Treatment groups included microwave ablation (MWA), microbubbles with microwave ablation (MBs + MWA), ultrasound in flash mode with microwave ablation (Flash + MWA), ultrasound in flash mode with microbubbles and microwave ablation (Flash + MBs + MWA), and ultrasound in flash mode with phosphate-buffered saline and microwave ablation (Flash + PBS + MWA). Hemostasis time, blood tests, ultrasound, pathological inspections, and analysis were conducted. The Flash + MBs + MWA group showed the shortest hemostasis time, with 2.25 ± 0.45, 2.42 ± 0.51, and 5.50 ± 0.52 min for diaphragm, gallbladder, and hepatic artery bleeding. Highest blood cell stability and a significantly larger hemostatic lesion range were observed in this group on ultrasound. Pathological analysis revealed varied extents of liver sinus congestion and dilation. The combination of ultrasound contrast microbubbles system and microwave thermal coagulation can effectively treat active hepatic hemorrhage, and microbubbles in ultrasound Flash mode have an enhancing effect on microwave coagulation hemostasis.
