NIR-II fluorescence imaging without intended excitation light.
Article in Chemical science, 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
Nowadays, second near-infrared window (NIR-II) dyes are almost excited by laser diodes, but none of the white light (400-700 nm) excited NIR-II imaging has been studied because of the lack of suitable optical probes. Herein, a novel blue-shifted NIR-II dye, TPA-TQT, has been selected for use in multi-wavelength white light emitting diode (LED) excited NIR-II imaging. This white LED barely caused photo-quenching of the dyes, especially indocyanine green (ICG), whereas the ICG's brightness decreased by 90% under continuous 808 nm laser irradiation. Compared to single-wavelength LED, multi-wavelength LED showed a lower background and similar signal-to-background ratios. This system provided high image resolution to identify blood vessels (103 μm), lymphatic capillaries (129.8 μm), and to monitor hindlimb ischemia-reperfusion and lymphatic inflammation. Furthermore, white LED excited NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided surgery (FIGS) was successfully performed in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. Impressively, the lighting LED-based NIR-II FIGS was found to clearly delineate small lesions of metastatic tumors of about ∼350 μm diameter and further was able to guide surgical removal. Overall, multi-wavelength LED-based NIR-II imaging is a promising imaging strategy for tumor delineation and other biomedical applications.
