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

Tumor heterogeneity and tumor evolution contribute to cancer treatment failure. To understand how selective pressures drive heterogeneous tumor evolution, it would be useful to image multiple important components and tumor subclones in vivo. We propose a supercontinuum-tailoring two-photon microscope (SCT-TPM) and realize simultaneous observation of nine fluorophores with a single light beam, breaking through the 'color barrier' of intravital two-photon fluorescence imaging. It achieves excitation multiplexing only by modulating the phase of fiber supercontinuum (SC), allowing to capture rapid events of multiple targets with maintaining precise spatial alignment. We employ SCT-TPM to visualize the spatiotemporal dynamics of heterogeneous tumor evolution under host immune surveillance, particularly the behaviors and interactions of six tumor subclones, immune cells and vascular network, and thus infer the trajectories of tumor progression and clonal competition. SCT-TPM opens up the possibility of tumor lineage tracking and mechanism exploration in living biological systems.
