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

Fluorophore excited state lifetime is a useful indicator of micro-environment in cellular optical molecular imaging. For quantitative sensing, precise lifetime determination is important, yet is often difficult to accomplish when using the experimental conditions favored by live cells. Here we report the first application of temporal optimization and spatial denoising methods to two-photon time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) to improve lifetime precision in live-cell images. The results demonstrated a greater than five-fold improvement in lifetime precision. This approach minimizes the adverse effects of excitation light on live cells and should benefit FLIM applications to high content analysis and bioimage informatics.
