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

We report on a novel endomicroscope, to the best of our knowledge, designed for achieving full 4×4 Mueller polarimetric images of biological tissues through a fiber endoscope for medical diagnosis. The polarimetric technique is based on a previously published two-wavelength differential method (TWDM). A key component of the endomicroscope is a resonant fiber-based microprobe including a highly-selective fiber Bragg grating (FBG), free of detrimental polarimetric effects, photo written in the core of the fiber, near the output face. By means of the TWDM, and using the specially designed microprobe (diameter 2.9 mm, length 30 mm), full Mueller images of 250×250 pixels were produced at the rate of 1 image/2 s through a 2 m single mode fiber, paving the way to
