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

Imaging cells in their 3D environment with molecular specificity is important to cell biology study. Widely used microscopy techniques, such as confocal microscopy, have limited imaging depth when probing cells in optically scattering media. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can provide millimeter-level depth for imaging of highly scattering media but lacks the contrast to distinguish cells from extracellular matrix or to distinguish between different types of cells. Photothermal OCT (PT-OCT) is a promising technique to obtain molecular contrast at the imaging scale of OCT. Here, we report PT-OCT imaging of live, nanoparticle-labeled cells in 3D. In particular, we demonstrate detection and mapping of single cell in 3D without causing call death, and show the feasibility of 3D cell mapping through optical scattering media. This work presents live cell detection and mapping at an imaging scale that complements the major microscopy techniques, which is potentially useful to study cells in their 3D native or culture environment.
