Multiplexed confocal FLIM for dynamic molecular imaging in live cells.
Article in Discover imaging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Quantitative measurements of the dynamics of biomolecular interactions allow biologists to develop a better understanding of biological processes that are critical to new diagnostic tools, drug discovery, and personalized treatments of diseases. Such measurements require multidimensional (spatial, spectral, and temporal) imaging with a high frame rate. Conventional single point confocal microscopy can produce 3D images at video rate but faces difficulties in accurately measuring fluorescence lifetime images (FLIM) while maintaining low excitation power to avoid phototoxicity and photobleaching in live cells. Multipoint confocal fluorescence lifetime imaging offers access to microscopic dynamics at the subcellular resolution. We have designed a 32 × 32 point multiplexing time-resolved confocal microscope to address these problems and demonstrated the power of this system to measure live cell FLIM of Förester resonance energy transfer (FRET). Using a pinhole array simplifies the optical system design, allowing improved optical efficiency for imaging at faster frame rates with a temporally calibrated single photon avalanche detector (SPAD) array. These efficiency improvements are leveraged by redesigning the optomechanical system and software processing to achieve a frame rate 12 times faster than previously demonstrated. Through dilution series measurements, we demonstrate that a concentration as low as 10 µM Coumarin6 can be measured accurately at 4 Hz frame rates. The performance is also demonstrated with fixed, stained samples and FLIM-FRET constructs in live cells at a maximum imaging rate of 4 Hz with an image dimension of 960 × 960 pixels.
