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

Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), which play a critical role in cellular signaling pathways, are one of the chemical products caused by ultrasound irradiation. In general, ROS generation has been ignored in terms of high-frequency ultrasound (>5 MHz) due to the limitation of cavitation induction. However, does high-frequency ultrasound not affect the production of ROS in cells? Here, we propose comparing ROS in solution and intracellular ROS generation by ultrasound at high frequency (6.5 MHz) and at a common frequency (1 MHz) in medical ultrasound applications, thereby elucidating the capabilities of high-frequency ultrasound on cells by ROS production. We discovered that 6.5 MHz ultrasound, as irradiated by a lithium niobate transducer, generates intracellular ROS more than conventional 1.0 MHz ultrasound. The phenomenon of ROS production by high-frequency ultrasound having high spatial resolution demonstrated the possibility that ultrasound is capable of effectively generating intracellular ROS at the cellular level.
