Sodium alginate-based tissue-mimicking phantom with tunable optical properties for laser thermotherapy.
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In the laser ablation and thermal therapy technologies, tissue-mimicking phantoms (TMPs) play a crucial role, enabling both the preclinical testing and equipment calibration, without the use of biological tissues. Special attention is paid to the simultaneous replication of optical, thermal, and mechanical properties of target tissues in a single TMP. Sodium alginate forms a promising material platform for the TMP development due to the tunability of its physical properties, biocompatibility, and exceptional thermal stability. Indeed, as a polysaccharide derived from brown seaweed, sodium alginate forms hydrogels (through the ionic cross-linking) with controllable mechanical and optical properties, and tailored texture and structural integrity. In this paper, the alginate-based TMP loaded by CuSO
