X-ray-induced shortwave infrared luminescence computed tomography.
Article in Optics letters, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
X-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) based on x-ray-excitable nanophosphors has been proposed as a new modality for molecular imaging. The technique has two main advantages compared to other modalities. First, autofluorescence, which is problematic for fluorescence imaging, can be substantially reduced. Second, deep-tissue in vivo imaging with high optical contrast and spatial resolution becomes achievable. Here, we extend the novel XLCT modality from the visible or infrared region to a shortwave infrared wavelength by developing an x-ray-induced shortwave infrared luminescence computed tomography (SWIR-XLCT). For this application, rare-earth nanophosphors (RENPs) were synthesized as core/shell structures consisting of a Ho-doped NaYbF4 core surrounded by a NaYF4 shell that emit light efficiently in the shortwave infrared spectral region under x-ray excitation. Through numerical simulations and phantom experiments, we showed the feasibility of SWIR-XLCT and demonstrated its potential for x-ray luminescence imaging with high spatial resolution and deep depth.
