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

High-throughput quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is essential to cellular phenotypes characterization as it allows high-content cell analysis and avoids adverse effects of staining reagents on cellular viability and cell signaling. Among different approaches, Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is probably the most promising technique to realize high-throughput QPI by synthesizing a wide-field, high-resolution complex image from multiple angle-variably illuminated, low-resolution images. However, the large dataset requirement in conventional FPM significantly limits its imaging speed, resulting in low temporal throughput. Moreover, the underlying theoretical mechanism as well as optimum illumination scheme for high-accuracy phase imaging in FPM remains unclear. Herein, we report a high-speed FPM technique based on programmable annular illuminations (AIFPM). The optical-transfer-function (OTF) analysis of FPM reveals that the low-frequency phase information can only be correctly recovered if the LEDs are precisely located at the edge of the objective numerical aperture (NA) in the frequency space. By using only 4 low-resolution images corresponding to 4 tilted illuminations matching a 10×, 0.4 NA objective, we present the high-speed imaging results of in vitro Hela cells mitosis and apoptosis at a frame rate of 25 Hz with a full-pitch resolution of 655 nm at a wavelength of 525 nm (effective NA = 0.8) across a wide field-of-view (FOV) of 1.77 mm
