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

This paper presents a novel analytical technique for evaluating fluorescence lifetimes excited by a nanosecond pulsed laser using a linearized rate equation approach that accounts for the incident pulse temporal distribution, an equivalent instrument response function, and non-exponential fluorescence decay which limits the application of traditional fluorescence lifetime techniques in stand-off applications. The approach is applied to model the fluorescence of a variety of pharmaceutical powders and phosphorescing samples exhibiting non-exponential decay and compared to results obtained with the maximum entropy method. Fluorescence lifetimes are found to be 3-5  ns, typical for organic fluorescent powders, and phosphorescence lifetimes were on the order of hundreds of nanoseconds. The approach also shows potential for determining the composition of mixed samples and can be readily extended to model increasingly complex scenarios with additional fluorescing or phosphorescing components.
