Flexible silicon sensors for diffuse reflectance spectroscopy of tissue.
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) is being used in exploratory clinical applications such as cancer margin assessment on excised tissue. However, when interrogating nonplanar tissue anomalies can arise from non-uniform pressure. Herein is reported the design, fabrication, and test of flexible, thin film silicon photodetectors (PDs) bonded to a flexible substrate designed for use in conformal DRS. The PDs have dark currents and responsivities comparable to conventional Si PDs, and were characterized while flat and while flexed at multiple radii of curvature using liquid phantoms mimicking adipose and malignant breast tissue. The DRS and nearest neighbor crosstalk results were compared with Monte Carlo simulations, showing good agreement between simulation and experiment.
