Exceptional point engineered glass slide for microscopic thermal mapping.
Article in Nature communications, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Thermal sensing with fine spatial resolution is important to the study of many scientific areas. While modern microscopy systems allow optical detection at high spatial resolution, their intrinsic functions are mainly focused on imaging but limited in detecting other physical parameters, for example, mapping thermal variations. Here, with a coating of an optical exceptional point structure, we demonstrate a low-cost but efficient multifunctional microscope slide, supporting real-time monitoring and mapping of temperature distribution and heat transport in addition to conventional microscopic imaging. The square-root dependency associated with an exceptional point leads to enhanced thermal sensitivity for precise temperature measurement. With a microscale resolution, real-time thermal mapping is conducted, showing dynamic temperature variation in a spatially defined area. Our strategy of integrating low-cost and efficient optical sensing technologies on a conventional glass slide enables simultaneous detection of multiple environmental parameters, producing improved experimental control at the microscale in various scientific disciplines.
