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

backgroundHyperspectral imaging has been proven to be useful in remote earth sensing, e.g., satellite-based classification of vegetation. After modifying it for in vivo evaluation of the larynx using microscopy, we show its adoption for endoscopes. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn addition to routine microlaryngoscopies under white light inspection, the laryngoscopy was also performed with not only a conventional operation microscope mounted with a tuneable monochromatic light source and a synchronously triggered monochromatic CCD camera (n = 47 patients), but also a similarly modified rigid 0° endoscope (n = 16 patients). Hyperspectral image cubes were obtained between 390 and 680 nm, analyzed using established software tools, and the data using microscope versus endoscope were compared.

resultsUnder endoscopy, illumination was more even and sterical resolution appeared unchanged at significantly shorter image acquisition times. Hyperspectral classification delineated areas of altered mucosa without further external information irrespective of whether image cubes were generated with microscopy or endoscopy.

conclusionHyperspectral imaging can be transferred not only to micro(laryngo)scopy but also to endoscopy with rigid optics. This opens the way to a variety of clinically relevant anatomical regions (e.g., upper aerodigestive tract). Its adoption to flexible optics will further broaden this spectrum.
