Phase-stability optimization of swept-source optical coherence tomography.
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
Phase-resolved imaging of swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) is subject to phase measurement instabilities involved with the sweep variation of a frequency-swept source. In general, optically generated timing references are utilized to track the variations imposed on OCT signals. But they might not be accurately synchronized due to relative time delays. In this research, we investigated the impact of the signal delays on the timing instabilities and the consequent deviations of the measured phases. We considered two types of timing signals utilized in a popular digitizer operation mode: a sweep trigger from a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) that initiates a series of signal sampling actions clocked by an auxiliary Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) signal. We found that significant instabilities were brought by the relative delays through incoherent timing corrections and timing collisions between the timing references. The best-to-worst ratio of the measured phase errors was higher than 200 while only the signal delays varied. Noise-limited phase stability was achieved with a wide dynamic range of OCT signals above 50 dB in optimized delays. This demonstrated that delay optimization is very effective in phase stabilization of SS-OCT.
