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

Significance: Among the available polarimetric techniques, backscattering Mueller matrix (MM) polarimetry provides a promising non-contact and quantitative tool for Aim: The purpose of this study is to systematically analyze the influence of oblique incidence on backscattering tissue polarimetry. Approach: We measured the MMs of experimental phantom and Results: Oblique incidence can induce different changes on non-periodic, two-periodic, and four-periodic MM elements, leading to false-positive and false-negative polarization information for tissue polarimetry. Moreover, a prominent oblique incidence can bring more dramatic signal variations, such as phase retardance and element transposition. Conclusions: The findings presented in this study give some crucial criterions of appropriate incident angle selections for
