Enhancement of Collagen and Elastic Fibers by Direct Contact Cooling-Based Monopolar Radiofrequency in a Minipig Model.
Article in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2026. 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
Purpose: To investigate the thermal effects, dermal remodeling, and safety of a novel direct contact cooling (DCC) based monopolar radiofrequency (RF) system using a minipig model. Methods: Monopolar RF was applied at three levels. Temperature changes, visual skin assessment, hematological analysis, and histological and histochemical evaluations were performed at baseline and up to 30 day post-treatment. Results: DCC-based monopolar RF achieved effective dermal heating without excessive epidermal temperature elevation. No adverse visual, systemic, or histological reactions were observed. Collagen density and elastic fiber remodeling were significantly enhanced at 30 days. Conclusion: DCC-based monopolar RF safely induces controlled dermal thermal stimulation and promotes extracellular matrix remodeling, supporting its potential as an effective non-invasive skin rejuvenation modality.
