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

The conventional fluorescence imaging has limited spatial resolution in centimeter-deep tissue because of the tissue's high scattering property. Ultrasound-switchable fluorescence (USF) imaging, a new imaging technique, was recently proposed to realize high-resolution fluorescence imaging in centimeter-deep tissue. However, in vivo USF imaging has not been achieved so far because of the lack of stable near-infrared contrast agents in a biological environment and the lack of data about their biodistributions. In this study, for the first time, we achieved in vivo USF imaging successfully in mice with high resolution. USF imaging in porcine heart tissue and mouse breast tumor via local injections were studied and demonstrated. In vivo and ex vivo USF imaging of the mouse spleen via intravenous injections was also successfully achieved. The results showed that the USF contrast agent adopted in this study was very stable in a biological environment, and it was mainly accumulated into the spleen of the mice. By comparing the results of CT imaging and the results of USF imaging, the accuracy of USF imaging was proved.
