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

Time-domain diffuse optical measurement systems determine depth-resolved absorption changes by using the time of flight distribution of the detected photons. It is well known that certain feature data, such as the Laplace transform of the temporal point spread function, is sufficient for image reconstruction and diffuse optical sensing. Conventional time-domain systems require the acquisition of full temporal profiles of diffusive photons and then numerically compute the feature dataset, for example, Laplace transformed intensities for imaging applications. We have proposed a novel method for directly obtaining the Laplace transform data. Our approach can significantly improve the data acquisition speed for time-domain diffuse optical imaging. We also demonstrated that the use of negative Laplace parameters can provide enhanced sensitivity to perturbations located in deep regions.
