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

objectiveThe air content within the lungs directly influences the dielectric properties of lung tissue; however, previous studies were conducted under ex vivo conditions and without quantitatively controlling air volume. This study aims to develop an improved model using in vivo measurements to accurately characterize the dielectric properties of rabbit lung tissue across various tidal volumes.

methodsIn this study, six sets of different tidal volumes (30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 mL) were set in the frequency band of 100 MHz~1 GHz to analyze the trend of the dielectric properties, and the dielectric parameters were systematically constructed under the conditions of different tidal volumes.

resultsIt was found that the conductivity and permittivity of rabbit lung tissue showed a decreasing trend with increasing tidal volume in the measuring frequency band. The traditional Cole-Cole model has limitations in simulating the dielectric properties of in vivo lung tissues. Therefore, by refining and optimizing the model, this study successfully reduced the average error between the measured data and the model fitting to less than 5%.

conclusionsThis study lays the groundwork for investigating the relationship between total air volume within the lungs and their dielectric properties in vivo.
