Thermal imaging in biomedical research: a non-invasive technology for animal models.
Review in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Thermal imaging has been used in animal models to non-invasively detect surface temperature changes after several pathologic and surgical processes. Infrared thermography (IRT) identifies increases or decreases in radiated heat according to blood circulation and microcirculation. The present review aims to discuss the most relevant aspects of IRT applied in biomedical research as a noninvasive technique in animal models, highlighting its importance in a clinical setting and for translational medicine. IRT provides an alternative to evaluate vascular anomalies where blood flow is interrupted. In surgical processes such as anastomosis and reconstructive techniques (e.g., grafts and flaps), thermal imaging can assess the viability of tissues. In burn injuries, IRT can predict and identify the areas of ischemia-necrosis and inflammation. Nonetheless, although IRT is a potential alternative to use in both animal models and human patients, the use of IRT and other imaging techniques is encouraged.
