Assessing Near-Infrared Optical Tomography's Depth Capability in Imaging Brain Vessels: An Experimental Study.
Article in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Advanced brain vessel imaging is crucial for diagnosing and treating brain-related conditions such as lesions and strokes, ultimately enhancing brain health. Among the range of cerebrovascular imaging modalities, near-infrared optical tomography (NIROT) stands out for its cost-effectiveness and brain oxygenation quantification. The objective of this project, as a continuation of our prior simulation study, is to evaluate in vitro the Pioneer system for imaging blood vessels. An experimental study was performed on a silicon phantom with a tube inclusion mimicking the superficial blood vessels at a depth of 5 mm. The experiment employed a time domain (TD) NIROT called Pioneer system. Image reconstruction was performed using the obtained TD data. We used root mean square error (RMSE) to evaluate the accuracy of the reconstructed images. We were able to detect the location and structure of the tube with a RMSE of 0.0285. This experimental study showed that the TD NIROT Pioneer system can detect vessel-like inclusion at the depth of 5 mm.
