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

Visualizing dynamic processes over large, three-dimensional fields of view at high speed is essential for many applications in the life sciences. Light-field microscopy (LFM) has emerged as a tool for fast volumetric image acquisition, but its effective throughput and widespread use in biology has been hampered by a computationally demanding and artifact-prone image reconstruction process. Here, we present a framework for artificial intelligence-enhanced microscopy, integrating a hybrid light-field light-sheet microscope and deep learning-based volume reconstruction. In our approach, concomitantly acquired, high-resolution two-dimensional light-sheet images continuously serve as training data and validation for the convolutional neural network reconstructing the raw LFM data during extended volumetric time-lapse imaging experiments. Our network delivers high-quality three-dimensional reconstructions at video-rate throughput, which can be further refined based on the high-resolution light-sheet images. We demonstrate the capabilities of our approach by imaging medaka heart dynamics and zebrafish neural activity with volumetric imaging rates up to 100 Hz.
