Monitoring of irrigated lesion formation with single fiber based multispectral system using machine learning.

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 radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, intraprocedural assessment of treatment efficacy relies on indirect measures of adequate tissue destruction. Direct sensing of diffuse reflectance spectral changes at the ablation site using optically integrated RFA catheters has been shown to enable accurate prediction of lesion dimensions, ex vivo. Challenges of optical guidance can be due to obtaining reliable measurements under various catheter-tissue contact orientations. In this work, addressed this limitation by assessing the feasibility of monitoring lesion progression using single-fiber reflectance spectroscopy (SFRS). A total of 110 endocardial lesions of various sizes were generated in freshly excised swine right ventricular tissue using a custom-built, irrigated SFRS-RFA catheter. Models were developed for assessing catheter-tissue contact, the presence of nontransmural or transmural lesions and lesion depth percentage. These results support the use of SFRS-based catheters for irrigated lesion assessment and motivate further exploration of using multi-SFRS catheters for omnidirectionality.
