Optical fiber speckle spectrometer based on reversed-lens smartphone microscope.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. 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
Smartphones are a potentially powerful platform for scientific instruments. Here, we demonstrate speckle spectroscopy with smartphone-level hardware. This technique promises greater performance thresholds than traditional diffraction gratings. Light is injected into an optical fiber and the emergent speckle patterns are imaged by a reversed-lens smartphone camera. The smartphone then uses an algorithm, running on a mobile computing app, to determine, in less than one second, the (hitherto unknown) input spectrum. We reconstruct a variety of visible-wavelength (470-670 nm) single and multi-peaked spectra using a tunable source. The latter also include a metameric pair, i.e., two spectra that are different, yet represent colors that are indistinguishable to the human eye.
