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

Fourier ptychography microscopy (FPM) has made significant progress since its invention in 2013, thanks to its adaptable nature, high resolution, and vast field-of-view capabilities. FPM is used in various medical applications across multiple optical wavelengths, from automated digital pathology to radiology and ultraviolet label-free imaging. This review explores the fundamental physical and computational concepts that have driven advancements in digital pathology using FPM. A crucial part of the progress has been the development of computational algorithms, which have directly contributed to the improvements in FPM. We evaluate early-stage algorithms like the Gerchberg-Saxton and highlight how phase-retrieval and deep-learning advancements have propelled FPM forward. Additionally, we discuss the impact of these algorithms on digital pathology for potential automated diagnosis, providing a comprehensive explanation of their influence on medical imaging and offering insights into future research directions.
