Single cell imaging with near-field terahertz scanning microscopy.
Article in Cell proliferation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
objectivesTerahertz (THz)-based imaging techniques hold great potential for biological and biomedical applications, which nevertheless are hampered by the low spatial resolution of conventional THz imaging systems. In this work, we report a high-performance photoconductive antenna microprobe-based near-field THz time-domain spectroscopy scanning microscope. MATERIALS AND
methodsA single watermelon pulp cell was prepared on a clean quartz slide and covered by a thin polyethylene film. The high performance near-field THz microscope was developed based on a coherent THz time-domain spectroscopy system coupled with a photoconductive antenna microprobe. The sample was imaged in transmission mode.
resultsWe demonstrate the direct imaging of the morphology of single watermelon pulp cells in the natural dehydration process with our near-field THz microscope.
conclusionsGiven the label-free and non-destructive nature of THz detection techniques, our near-field microscopy-based single-cell imaging approach sheds new light on studying biological samples with THz.
