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

Thin tissue slice based histology has been used as a gold standard for disease diagnosis since over a hundred years ago. However, histopathological evaluation on two-dimensional slides suffers from large variations due to limited sampling. To improve the diagnostic accuracy, three-dimensional (3D) histology is performed through serial sectioning, staining, imaging and reconstruction of individual slices, which is highly time-consuming and labor intensive. We developed a volumetric stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) imaging method, which provides histology-like information in 3D context without the need for staining with dyes. Using a small molecule clearing agent, formamide, we performed tissue clearing within 30 min and achieved an imaging depth up to 500 µm in highly scattered tissues, including brain, kidney, liver and lung. Through a two-color SRS imaging scheme, we obtained histology-like images in cleared brain tissue slices. Our method has the potential for 3D tissue histopathology to improve the accuracy of histopathological examination.
