Optimization of Light Transmission through an Excitation-scan Hyperspectral Mirror Array System.
Article in Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Hyperspectral imaging has numerous applications in a range of fields for target detection. While its original applications were in remote sensing, new uses include analyzing food quality, agriculture and medicine, Hyperspectral imaging has shown utility in fluorescence microscopy for detecting signatures from many fluorescent molecules, but acquisition speeds have been slow due to the need to acquire many spectral bands and the light losses associated with spectral filtering. Therefore, a novel confocal microscope, the 5-Dimensional Rapid Hyperspectral Imaging Platform (RHIP-5D) was designed and is undergoing testing to overcome acquisition speed and sensitivity limitations. The current design utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and a multifaceted mirror array to combine light sources into a liquid light guide. Initial tests demonstrated feasibility and we are now working on determining the ideal location of the liquid light guide, LEDs, lenses and mirror array to optimize optical transmission. A computational model was constructed using Monte Carlo optical ray tracing in TracePro software (Lambda Research Corp.). LED sources were simulated by importing irradiance properties from the manufacturers' specifications. Optical properties of lenses were modeled using lens files available from the manufacturer. Analysis of the model includes geometry and parametric optimization, assessing lens power, mirror angles and location of optical elements. Initial results show an increase of transmission is possible by up to 20%. Future work will involve evaluating the position of the liquid light guide as well as analyzing lens configurations to further increase optical transmission.
