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

Decades of research and applications have demonstrated that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has a certain therapeutic effect on diseases involving bone remodeling. LIPUS operates in a pulsed-wave mode at low intensity, ensuring efficient transmission of acoustic energy to target tissues, thereby providing non-invasive physical stimulation for therapeutic purposes. Bone remodeling refers to the dynamic renewal process of bone tissue that is jointly completed by multiple cells in the bone metabolic microenvironment. LIPUS influences the basic biological processes of bone remodeling in the skeletal system through mechanical, piezoelectric, and thermal effects on bone tissue, triggering a series of biochemical reactions. This article begins with the discovery of ultrasound and research on bone remodeling, introduces the basic parameters and application devices of LIPUS, and reviews the clinical applications of and basic research on LIPUS in bone remodeling disorders. Focusing on the intersection and integration of biomedical fundamentals and ultrasound science, it analyzes the biological and physical mechanisms of LIPUS in research on and applications of bone remodeling disorders and investigates the basic research questions and clinical transformation application scenarios in this field.
