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

Imaging through dynamic scattering media, such as biological tissue, presents a fundamental challenge due to light scattering and the formation of speckle patterns. These patterns not only degrade image quality but also decorrelate rapidly, limiting the effectiveness of conventional approaches, such as those based on transmission matrix measurements. Here, we introduce an imaging approach based on second-order correlations and synthetic wavelength holography to enable robust image reconstruction through thick and dynamic scattering media. By exploiting intensity speckle correlations and using short-exposure intensity images, our method computationally reconstructs images from a hologram without requiring phase stability or static speckles, making it inherently resilient to phase noise. Experimental results demonstrate high-resolution imaging in both static and dynamic scattering scenarios, offering a promising solution for biomedical imaging, remote sensing, and real-time imaging in complex environments.
