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

Dichroism is a material property that causes anisotropic light-matter interactions for different optical polarizations. Dichroism relates to molecular types and material morphology and thus can be used to distinguish different dichroic tissues. In this paper, we present single-shot dichroism photoacoustic microscopy that can image tissue structure, linear dichroism, and polarization angle with a single raster scanning. We develop a fiber-based laser system to split one laser pulse into three with different polarization angles, sub-microseconds time delay, and identical pulse energy. A dual-fiber optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy system is developed to acquire three A-lines per scanning step. In such a way, dichroism imaging can achieve the same speed as single-wavelength photoacoustic microscopy. Moreover, the three polarized pulses originate from one laser pulse, which decreases pulse energy fluctuations and reduces dichroism measurement noise by ∼35 %. The new dichroism photoacoustic imaging technique can be used to image endogenous or exogenous polarization-dependent absorption contrasts, such as dichroic tumor or molecule-labeled tissue.
