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

A method for the discrimination of superficial and deep absorption variations by time domain functional near infrared spectroscopy is presented. The method exploits the estimate of the photon time-dependent pathlength in different domains of the sampled medium and makes use of an approach based on time-gating of the photon distribution of time-of-flights. Validation of the method is performed in the two-layer geometry to focus on muscle and head applications. Numerical simulations varied the thickness of the upper layer, the interfiber distance, the shape of the instrument response function and the photon counts. Preliminary results from in vivo data are also shown.
