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

For the laser treatment of vascular dermatosis, the blood vessel morphology and depth in skin tissue is essential to achieve personalized intelligent therapy. The morphology can be obtained from the laser speckle imaging, and vessel depth was extracted by an inverse methodology based on diffuse reflectance spectrum. With optimized spot size of 0.5 mm and known optical properties, the proposed method was experimentally validated via the spectral measurement of microcapillary with known size and depth embedded in an epoxy resin-based skin phantom. Results prove that vessel depth can be extracted with an average relative error of 5%, thereby providing the foundation for a personalized, precise, and intelligent laser treatment of vascular dermatosis.
