Assessing Intracellular Metabolism of Immune Cells In Situ in Live Zebrafish Larvae by Autofluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy of NAD(P)H and FAD.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Understanding the dynamic changes in the intracellular metabolism of immune cells has become fundamental to understanding the regulation of their effector functions. Optical metabolic imaging, consisting of optical redox ratio and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy of endogenous coenzymes NAD(P)H and FAD, offers a label-free and non-invasive approach to assess intracellular metabolism at the single-cell level. The major advantage of optical metabolic imaging is that it can assess heterogeneity in the sample with spatiotemporal resolution. While this approach has been mainly used to perform metabolic imaging on in vitro samples, studies have demonstrated that it also performs well in live, intact animals, and is sensitive to dynamic changes in immune cell activation. This chapter describes protocols for performing optical metabolic imaging of innate immune cells at the caudal fin wound microenvironment of larval zebrafish following sterile injuries. However, the protocol can be readily applied to other cell types and in different biological contexts.
