Deep Tissue Characterization with Optical Coherence Elastography: A Comparison of Different Methods.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The measurement of the biomechanical properties of the skin is of great interest since these properties play an important role in the development of several diseases such as skin cancer and systemic sclerosis. In this direction, several diagnostic tools have been developed to analyze the mechanical properties of the skin. Optical coherence elastography (OCE) is one of the emerging imaging techniques used for the characterization of the mechanical properties of the tissue quantitatively. In systemic sclerosis patients, the measurement of the mechanical properties of the deeper skin layers is desirable compared to the superficial layers. There are several variants of OCE that exist, but it is still not clear which method is more suitable for the measurement of the mechanical properties of the deeper tissue. In this work, we tested three common methods, the pulsed excitation method, the continuous wave excitation method, and the resonant frequency method, for the measurement of the mechanical properties of the deeper layers in the tissue. We found out that the pulsed wave excitation method provides the most reliable measurements in the shortest possible time compared to the other two methods.
