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

Recently, we demonstrated an integrated photoacoustic (PA) and ultrasound (PAUS) system using a kHz-rate wavelength-tunable laser and a swept-beam delivery approach. It irradiates a medium using a narrow laser beam swept at high repetition rate (∼1 kHz) over the desired imaging area, in contrast to the conventional PA approach using broad-beam illumination at a low repetition rate (10-50 Hz). Here, we present a method to correct the wavelength-dependent fluence distribution and demonstrate its performance in phantom studies using a conventional limited view/bandwidth hand-held US probe. We adopted analytic fluence models, extending diffusion theory for the case of a pencil beam obliquely incident on an optically homogenous turbid medium, and developed a robust method to estimate fluence attenuation in the medium using PA measurements acquired from multiple fiber-irradiation positions swept at a kHz rate. We conducted comprehensive simulation tests and phantom studies using well-known contrast-agents to validate the reliability of the fluence model and its spectral corrections.
