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
We present a implementation method of light-sheet microscopy utilizing a highly miniaturized device that produces light-sheet illumination while immersed in the sample container. Our miniaturized plane illuminator (MPI) internally equips a two-axis beam-scanning mechanism based on a magnetostatically driven optical fiber cantilever. A light sheet is produced by fast scanning of the focused beam in an axis while the illumination plane can move in the other axis for positioning and 3D imaging. Our MPI device is so compact in a 1.5 mm-thick needle form that it can be conveniently placed in the right vicinity of the imaging sample. Because the illumination is directly given in the sample-surrounding medium, a great deal of operational flexibility is obtained with an uncompromised beam quality. We could build a light-sheet microscopy system with a conventional inverted microscope frame by attaching our MPI upgrade kit as an add-on module. In this study, the optical and electromechanical characteristics of our MPI device were carefully investigated. As well, light-sheet microscopy imaging of various samples was performed to validate the practical power of our technique. We found our MPI can provide a low-cost and easy-to-use imaging mode, and make the light-sheet microscopy more available in various applications.
