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

Volumetric functional imaging of transient cellular signaling and motion dynamics is often limited by hardware bandwidth and the scarcity of photons under short exposures. To overcome these challenges, we introduce squeezed light field microscopy (SLIM), a computational imaging approach that rapidly captures high-resolution three-dimensional light signals using only a single, low-format camera sensor. SLIM records over 1,000 volumes per second across a 550-µm diameter field of view and 300-µm depth, achieving 3.6-µm lateral and 6-µm axial resolution. Here we demonstrate its utility in blood cell velocimetry within the embryonic zebrafish brain and in freely moving tails undergoing high-frequency swings. Millisecond-scale temporal resolution further enables precise voltage imaging of neural membrane potentials in the leech ganglion and hippocampus of behaving mice. Together, these results establish SLIM as a versatile and robust tool for high-speed volumetric microscopy across diverse biological systems.
