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

We present a comprehensive framework for phase-coherent multi-sensor synthesis in photoacoustic imaging, offering a practical approach to expand the effective bandwidth of acoustic detection. Our approach integrates precise point spread function characterization, phase-aware deconvolution, and adaptive signal synthesis to optimize the complementary advantages of sensors with different frequency responses. Using two optical fiber sensors with distinct diameters (125 μm and 90 μm) and resonant frequencies (22 MHz and 31 MHz), we demonstrate that phase-corrected synthesis significantly outperforms direct signal addition, achieving enhanced spatial resolution (from 170 μm to 83 μm) and 6 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In phantom and in vivo human palm imaging experiments, our method enables simultaneous visualization of vessels across scales of different sizes with improved clarity. The framework is generalizable to various sensor technologies, offering a versatile solution for enhancing photoacoustic imaging performance in clinical applications requiring detailed vascular visualization.
