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

One of the remaining challenges of bringing photoacoustic imaging to clinics is the occurrence of reflection artifacts. Previously, we proposed a method using multi-wavelength excitation to identify and remove the RAs. However, this method requires at least 3 wavelengths. Here we improve the method further by reducing the required number of wavelengths to 2. We experimentally demonstrate this new method and compare it with the previous one. Results show that this new method holds great feasibility for identifying reflection artifacts in addition to preserving all advantages of the previous method.
