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

Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) has found numerous applications in the life sciences through its gentle, rapid and efficient volumetric imaging capabilities. It would be advantageous if its rapid 3D imaging capabilities could be extended to non-fluorescent contrast mechanisms such as light-scattering. Yet, the coherent illumination with a light-sheet can cause cross-interference from multiple scatterers. Consequently, this can lead to an object-variant point-spread function, which complicates image analysis. Here we show that by combining axially swept illumination with sparse, but strong scatterers can lead to 3D imaging of comparable quality to traditional fluorescent light-sheet microscopy. We leverage axial sweeping of a light-sheet to both record fluorescence and scattered signals in expanded breast cancer spheroids seeded with gold nanoparticles.
