Dual-angle light scattering spectroscopy for calibration-free measurements of scatterer suspensions.
Article in Optics letters, 2025. 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
It can be difficult to employ optical techniques for analyzing biological structures smaller than or comparable to the wavelength of light, such as extracellular vesicles or some types of bacteria. Biological light scattering spectroscopy (LSS), developed to address this problem, has been successfully used for characterizing tissue on cellular and subcellular scales. At the same time, calibration with a reference sample of known optical properties can complicate LSS measurements. In this Letter, we present dual-angle LSS (daLSS), which is designed for calibration-free measurements of scatterer suspensions. It employs measurements of a sample at two distinct angles, which then allows system effects to be removed entirely. Not only does daLSS simplify and speed up the measurement procedure, but it also makes spectra more reproducible, an important feature for diagnostic techniques. We validated the technique by accurately reconstructing the sizes of polystyrene microspheres with diameters less than 100 nm and then demonstrated that not only are the daLSS spectra of several common bacteria strains easily distinguishable but they are also highly reproducible.
