Silicon Photomultiplier-A High Dynamic Range, High Sensitivity Sensor for Bio-Photonics Applications.
Article in Biosensors, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This work is an overview of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) with a view to defining their importance for bio-photonic and clinical applications. SiPMs are benchmarked against other common photodetectors, namely, PIN diodes and avalanche photodetectors (APDs) and are compared with respect to important circuit design parameters. It will be shown that careful selection of the design bias voltage, overvoltage, gain defining components and device integration to micro-optics can allow SiPM detectors to achieve considerable sensitivity for auto-fluorescence (AF) detection and a wide dynamic range at low optical powers (~1 pW to ~4 μW). The SiPM has a manageable bias voltage (~25 V to ~30 V DC) for systems integration, and with optimised sensitivity it will enhance bio-photonic research in the area of AF to detect intraoperatively, for example, brain tumour margins.
