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

X-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) is an emerging hybrid molecular imaging modality and has shown great promises in overcoming the strong optical scattering in deep tissues. Though the narrow x-ray beam based XLCT imaging has been demonstrated to obtain high spatial resolution at depth, it suffers from a relatively long measurement time, hindering its practical applications. Recently, we have designed a focused x-ray beam based XLCT imaging system and have successfully performed imaging in about 7.5 seconds per section for a mouse sized object. However, its high spatial resolution capacity has not been fully implemented yet. In this paper, with a superfine focused x-ray beam we design a focused-x-ray luminescence tomography (FXLT) system for spatial resolution up to 94 μm. First, we have described our design in details. Then, we estimate the performance of the designed FXLT imaging system. Lastly, we have found that the spatial resolution of FXLT can be further improved by reducing the scan step size, which has been demonstrated by numerical simulations.
