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

We present a new Phase-Retrieved Tomography (PRT) method to radically improve mesoscopic imaging at regimes beyond one transport mean-free-path and achieve high resolution, uniformly throughout the volume of opaque samples. The method exploits multi-view acquisition in a hybrid Selective Plane Illumination Microscope (SPIM) and Optical Projection Tomography (OPT) setup and a three-dimensional Gerchberg-Saxton phase-retrieval algorithm applied in 3D through the autocorrelation sinogram. We have successfully applied this innovative protocol to image optically dense 3D cell cultures in the form of tumor spheroids, highly versatile models to study cancer behavior and response to chemotherapy. We have thus achieved a significant improvement of resolution in depths not yet accessible with the currently used methods in SPIM/OPT, while overcoming all registration and alignment problems inherent to these techniques.
