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

Photoacoustic (PA) imaging combines optical contrast with ultrasound (US) detection, enabling high-resolution imaging of biological tissues with greater penetration depth than conventional optical techniques. Among its various implementations, photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) achieves micrometer-scale resolution by focusing laser excitation and detecting ultrasonic signals, allowing for the detailed visualization of microvascular structures and fine tissue morphology. Over the last decade, PAM imaging speed has significantly increased by adopting PA scanners that steer optical and acoustic waves. However, these scanners must be placed after focusing optics to co-align the waves on a spot, which creates bent focal lines along the scanning direction and limits the scanning range. To achieve wide-field imaging, various image mosaic algorithms have been applied, but these methods require multiple manual operations, which take more time than the imaging itself. In this study, we developed a wide-field, high-speed scanning acoustic/photoacoustic microscopy (SA/PAM) system equipped with a transparent ultrasound transducer and a moving magnet linear stage, which eliminates the need for complex mosaic algorithms. This system enables wide-field imaging up to 50 × 50 mm
