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

significanceThree-dimensional photoacoustic imaging (PAM) has emerged as a promising technique for non-invasive label-free visualization and characterization of biological tissues with high spatial resolution and functional contrast.

aimThe application of PAM and ultrasound as a microscopy technique of study for Atlantic salmon skin is presented here. APPROACH: A custom ultrasound and photoacoustic experimental setup was used for conducting this experiment with a sample preparation method where the salmon skin is embedded in agarose and lifted from the bottom of the petridish.

resultsThe results of C-scan, B-scan, and overlayed images of ultrasound and photoacoustic are presented. The results are then analyzed for understanding the pigment map and its relation to salmon behavior to external stimuli. The photoacoustic images are compared with the optical images and analyzed further. A custom colormap and alpha map is designed and the matrices responsible for PAM and ultrasound are inserted together to overlay the ultrasound image and PAM image on top of each other.

conclusionsIn this study, we propose an approach that combines scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) images with PAM images for providing a comprehensive understanding of the salmon skin tissue. Overlaying acoustic and photoacoustic images enabled unique visualization of tissue morphology, with respect to identification of structural features in the context of their pigment distribution.
