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-sheet microscopy (LSM) enables us to strengthen the understanding of cardiac development, injury, and regeneration in mammalian models. This emerging technique decouples laser illumination and fluorescence detection to investigate cardiac micro-structure and function with a high spatial resolution while minimizing photodamage and maximizing penetration depth. To unravel the potential of volumetric imaging in cardiac development and repair, we sought to integrate our in-house LSM, Adipo-Clear, and virtual reality (VR) with neonatal mouse hearts. We demonstrate the use of Adipo-Clear to render mouse hearts transparent, the development of our in-house LSM to capture the myocardial architecture within the intact heart, and the integration of VR to explore, measure, and assess regions of interests in an interactive manner. Collectively, we have established an innovative and holistic strategy for image acquisition and interpretation, providing an entry point to assess myocardial micro-architecture throughout the entire mammalian heart for the understanding of cardiac morphogenesis.
