A Method for Minimally-Invasive Injection of Wireless Microdevices into Brain Tissue.

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
As the field advances with the introduction of a new generation of electrodes, the demand for refined injection methodologies becomes evident. These electrodes, frequently termed microdevices, are intricately microfabricated and require precise insertion into neural tissue. Despite the existence of conventional injection methods, there is a pressing need to formulate strategies aimed at minimizing the damage associated with the deployment of microdevices of varied sizes and configurations. In recognition of this need, the introduced technique can be applied for damage mitigation when injecting microdevices into brain tissue. We introduce a novel injection aid and describe an injection technique that results in reduced tissue damage. The damage of injecting into agarose and the brain, with and without the aid of a tool that creates microvibrations is evaluated. Cryosectioning data is presented to assess the damage caused by the injection, which was found to be 7.4% less when using microvibrations.
