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

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) provides high resolution optical images of tissue at depths of up to several centimetres. This modality has been of interest to researchers for at least 30 years and is still the subject of intensive research. However, PAT researchers lack access to a comprehensive open-source graphical simulation and reconstruction software package. In this article, we introduce PATLAB, an open-source MATLAB-based graphical software package that can perform both PAT simulation and image reconstruction. PATLAB is simple to use yet is capable of complex PAT data processing tasks and offers advanced users a framework to build and test new methods.
