Combined reflectance and Raman spectroscopy to assess degree of in vivo angiogenesis after tissue injury.
Article in The Journal of surgical research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundAngiogenesis, the formation of blood vessels, is a critical aspect of wound healing. Disorders of wound healing are often characterized by lack of angiogenesis, a condition frequently observed in aging and diabetic patients. Current techniques for assessing blood at injury sites are limited to contrast-imaging, including angiography. However, these techniques do not directly observe oxygenation of blood and are not amenable to serial evaluation. A multimodal noninvasive reflectance and Raman spectrometer have been proposed to help clinicians as a point-of-care tool to interrogate local angiogenesis and tissue architecture, respectively. The spectrometer system is a rapid, noninvasive, and label-free technology well-suited for the clinical environment. MATERIALS AND
methodsTo demonstrate feasibility, the spectrometer system was used to interrogate angiogenesis serially over 9 wk as a result of heterotopic ossification (HO) development in a validated murine model. End-stage HO was confirmed by micro-computed tomography.
resultsOur preliminary results suggest that reflectance spectroscopy can be used to delineate vessel formation and that pathologic wounds may be characterized by unique spectra. In our model, HO formed at sites 1-3, whereas sites 4 and 5 did not have radiographic evidence of HO.
conclusionsA point-of-care system like that demonstrated here shows potential as a noninvasive tool to assess local angiogenesis and tissue architecture that may allow for timely intervention in a clinical setting.
