S-polarized light-sheets improve resolution and light-efficiency in oblique plane microscopy.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. 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
Oblique plane microscopy (OPM) offers 3D optically sectioned imaging with high spatial- and temporal-resolution while enabling conventional sample mounting. The technique uses a concatenation of three microscopes, two for remote focusing and a tilted tertiary microscope, often including an immersion objective, to image an oblique sample plane. This design induces Fresnel reflections and a reduced effective aperture, thus impacting the resolution and light efficiency of the system. Using vectorial diffraction simulations, the system performance was characterized based on illumination angle and polarization, signal to noise ratio, and refractive index of the tertiary objective immersion. We show that for samples with high fluorescent anisotropy, s-polarized light-sheets yield higher average resolution for all system configurations, as well as higher light-efficiency. We also provide a tool for performance characterization of arbitrary light-sheet imaging systems.
