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 present the development of a dual-mode imaging platform that combines optical microscopy with magnetic resonance microscopy. Our microscope is designed to operate inside a 9.4T small animal scanner with the option to use a 72mm bore animal RF coil or different integrated linear micro coils. With a design that minimizes the magnetic distortions near the sample, we achieved a field inhomogeneity of 19 ppb RMS. We further integrated a waveguide in the optical layout for the electromagnetic shielding of the camera, which minimizes the noise increase in the MR and optical images below practical relevance. The optical layout uses an adaptive lens for focusing, 2 × 2 modular combinations of objectives with 0.6mm to 2.3mm field of view and 4 configurable RGBW illumination channels and achieves a plano-apochromatic optical aberration correction with 0.6μm to 2.3μm resolution. We present the design, implementation and characterization of the prototype including the general optical and MR-compatible design strategies, a knife-edge optical characterization and different concurrent imaging demonstrations.
