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

This paper presents a rapid label-free method for the identification of morphological characteristics of biological cells. Based on quantitative phase microscopy as well as the connotation of phase value, the gradient operator of phase and the associated analytic processing are employed to determine the edge of different parts of the samples. A heterogeneous biological cell model is established by simulation to show the mechanism of this method and a polystyrene bead is selected as a sample to confirm its validity by optical experiment. The result agrees well with the actual situation and this approach is proved to have good antinoise ability. Furthermore, a neutrophil is investigated by this method. Based on the optical experiment and the related analysis, the basic structure characteristics of the cell are obtained. It is indicated that the method presented in this paper could be applied to rapid identification and classification of living cells.
