Hepatic Histotripsy: Jet Ventilation Decreases the Effect of Respiratory Motion in A Porcine Liver Model.
Article in Cardiovascular and interventional radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
purposeTo determine the efficacy of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) to reduce the effects of respiratory motion on the resultant treatment zone during hepatic histotripsy in an in vivo porcine model. MATERIALS AND
methodsNon-tumor bearing swine (n = 6, 50.1 kg) underwent hepatic histotripsy with both HFJV and conventional ventilation (CV) in separate locations. Treatments were followed by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and necropsy. Treatment zone size (with emphasis on the cranial-caudal (CC) dimension), volume, and a survey for complications were conducted by MRI and at necropsy. Histopathology was performed to confirm complete cell kill in the treatment zone. Treatment precision was assessed by the width of the transition zone (TZ, zone of partial treatment) with a narrower TZ denoting increased precision.
resultsAnimals tolerated treatments with no adverse events. Treatment zones created during HFJV were less elongated than during CV (CC dimension during HFJV = 27.8 mm vs. CV = 32.3 mm, p = 0.04). Mean TZ width (treatment precision) was narrower in the HFJV group (HFJV = 4.1 mm, CV = 6.9 mm, p < 0.001), particularly at the cranial margin (HFJV = 4.0 mm, CV = 8.2, p = 0.018). Off-target treatments occurred in the chest wall (n = 2) and spleen (n = 1).
conclusionHigh-frequency jet ventilation reduces the craniocaudal elongation of histotripsy treatment zones caused by respiratory motion and improves the precision of histotripsy compared to conventional ventilation in this animal model.
