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

In our previous studies, we have developed a prototype interstitial needle sensing probe that can acquire broadband A-line photoacoustic (PA) signals encoding both tissue microarchitecture and histochemical information comparable to that accessible by histology. Paving the road toward clinical translation of this technology, we replaced the piezoelectric hydrophone in the needle PA probe with a fiber optic hydrophone that enabled both broader bandwidth and sufficient signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for PA signal detection. Such an all-optical design also facilitated disposability and significantly reduced the footprint of the needle PA sensing probe. Experiments were performed on well-controlled phantoms and human prostate tissues. The microarchitectures in each sample were quantitatively evaluated by both the nonlinear spectral slope of the PA signal power spectrum and the generalized gamma (GG) parameter
