Three-Dimensional Tissue Strain Measurement Using a Row-Column Array During Biaxial Testing of Excised Ventricular Porcine Myocardium.

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
objectiveTo implement and validate a 3D volume imaging sequence and 3D strain estimation procedure for enhanced biaxial mechanical testing of excised ventricular myocardium.
methodsOne specimen of right and one of left ventricular excised porcine myocardium were tested using dual-loading protocol quasistatic biaxial mechanical testing. During biaxial testing, volume ultrasound (US) images were acquired using a row-column addressed array probe using a synthetic aperture imaging sequence. Volume US images were used to compute tissue deformation using 3D correlation-based US speckle tracking. US-derived tissue strains were validated against repeated measurements using conventional optical camera imaging of the specimen surface deformation.
resultsSpeckle tracking yielded high-fidelity maps of tissue deformation in 3D throughout the entire sample volume. US-derived tissue strain is in good agreement with ground-truth camera-derived surface strain measurements (root mean square error is 1.6% strain).
conclusionThe 3D full-thickness strain measurement with US imaging is accurate and can enhance biomechanical insights from biaxial experimentation, especially in large tissues such as porcine and human myocardium where assumptions of plane stress and incompressibility may not apply.
