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

Optical imaging methods have the potential to overcome many of the drawbacks posed by current breast imaging modalities. Previous studies have found that mammographic compression induces different hemodynamic effects in cancerous and healthy breast tissue. This effect could be exploited in continuous-wave near-infrared spectroscopic imaging (CW-NIRS) for fast and accurate breast cancer screening. The primary issue with this approach is that breast tissue (and the cancerous mass) is displaced during the compression process, potentially introducing a considerable amount of errors and noise into the NIRS measurements with the current simple models used in estimating blood volume (and/or oxy/deoxy Hb) concentrations. In this work, we examine how these errors change with signal depth with breast compression and investigate methods to correct these based on simulations and experiments.
