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

Light scattering poses a challenge for imaging deep in scattering media as the ballistic light exponentially attenuates with depth. In contrast to the ballistic light, the multiply scattered light penetrates deeper and also contains information about the sample. One technique to image deeper is to selectively detect only a subset of the multiply scattered light, namely the 'snake' photons, which are predominantly forward scattered and retain more direct information than the more strongly scattered light. In this work, we develop a technique, termed speckle-resolved optical coherence tomography (srOCT), for efficiently detecting these 'snake' photons to enable imaging deeper in scattering media. The system couples spatio-angular filtering with speckle-resolved interferometric detection to preferentially and efficiently detect the weakly scattered 'snake' photons. With our proof-of-concept system, we demonstrate depth-resolved imaging beyond the ballistic limit, up to a depth of 90 round-trip MFPs in a scattering phantom and a depth of 4.5 mm of chicken tissue at 0.4 mm axial and lateral resolution.
