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

Emerging clinical interest in combining standard white light endoscopy with targeted near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent contrast agents for improved early cancer detection has created demand for multimodal imaging endoscopes. We used two spectrally resolving detector arrays (SRDAs) to realize a bimodal endoscope capable of simultaneous reflectance-based imaging in the visible spectral region and multiplexed fluorescence-based imaging in the NIR. The visible SRDA was composed of 16 spectral bands, with peak wavelengths in the range of 463 to 648 nm and full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) between 9 and 26 nm. The NIR SRDA was composed of 25 spectral bands, with peak wavelengths in the range 659 to 891 nm and FWHM 7 to 15 nm. The spectral endoscope design was based on a "babyscope" model using a commercially available imaging fiber bundle. We developed a spectral transmission model to select optical components and provide reference endmembers for linear spectral unmixing of the recorded image data. The technical characterization of the spectral endoscope is presented, including evaluation of the angular field-of-view, barrel distortion, spatial resolution and spectral fidelity, which showed encouraging performance. An agarose phantom containing oxygenated and deoxygenated blood with three fluorescent dyes was then imaged. After spectral unmixing, the different chemical components of the phantom could be successfully identified via majority decision with high signal-to-background ratio (>3). Imaging performance was further assessed in an ex vivo porcine esophagus model. Our preliminary imaging results demonstrate the capability to simultaneously resolve multiple biological components using a compact spectral endoscopy system.
