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

Fluorescence lifetime (FLT) imaging has been shown to distinguish tumors from normal tissue with high accuracy. However, the practical utility of FLT imaging is hindered by slow acquisition speeds and depth-dependent inaccuracies. To address these challenges, we introduce FLT-SLAM, a novel algorithm that combines rapid FLT imaging with simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) for real-time 3D surface reconstruction and depth-corrected FLT estimation. Using a stereo laparoscope, our approach extracts real-time depth information to improve accuracy, while achieving acquisition speeds exceeding 5 Hz. FLT maps are overlaid onto large-scale 3D surface models generated by SLAM, improving visualization and spatial awareness. We validate FLT-SLAM through phantom and ex-vivo tissue measurements, and show that it reduces FLT estimation errors by nearly 20%, thereby demonstrating its potential to enhance real-time, depth-corrected FLT imaging for surgical applications.
