Three-dimensional random-access confocal microscopy with 3D remote focusing system.
Article in Communications engineering, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Understanding biological activities in cells or deep tissues requires high-speed three-dimensional (3D) imaging. Substantial progress has been made with the emergence of 3D random-access microscopy. However, current solutions for fast 3D random-access imaging remain complex and costly. Herein we propose a simple, cost-effective, and fast 3D random-access confocal microscopy with remote focusing system. Our system shows isotropic response times across the x, y, and z axes, with a 34-fold improvement in axial response time over traditional piezo stages. We demonstrate its volumetric imaging performance with fluorescent particles and live cells. Furthermore, we validate the 3D random-access imaging capability of this system by continuously monitoring the signals in three different planes, showing a refresh rate of 500 Hz on two different positions in 3D. The simplicity, versatility, and affordability of our system promise widespread applications in research and industry.
