ClearScope: A Fully Integrated Light-Sheet Theta Microscope for Sub-Micron-Resolution Imaging Without Lateral Size Constraints.
Article in Journal of imaging, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Three-dimensional (3D) ex vivo imaging of cleared tissue from intact brains from animal models, human brain surgical specimens, and large postmortem human and non-human primate brain specimens is essential for understanding physiological neural connectivity and pathological alterations underlying neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Contemporary light-sheet microscopy enables rapid, high-resolution imaging of large, cleared samples but is limited by the orthogonal arrangement of illumination and detection optics, which constrains specimen size. Light-sheet theta microscopy (LSTM) overcomes this limitation by employing two oblique illumination paths while maintaining a perpendicular detection geometry. Here, we report the development of a next-generation, fully integrated and user-friendly LSTM system that enables uniform subcellular-resolution imaging (with subcellular resolution determined by the lateral performance of the system) throughout large specimens without constraining lateral (XY) dimensions. The system provides a seamless workflow encompassing image acquisition, data storage, pre- and post-processing, enhancement and quantitative analysis. Performance is demonstrated by high-resolution 3D imaging of intact mouse brains and human brain samples, including complete downstream analyses such as digital neuron tracing, vascular reconstruction and design-based stereological analysis. This enhanced and accessible LSTM implementation enables rapid quantitative mapping of molecular and cellular features in very large biological specimens.
