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 dynamic full-field optical coherence tomography (D-FFOCT) system providing both structural and dynamic contrast for label-free imaging of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The system simultaneously acquires structural and dynamic contrast, enabling visualization of tissue morphology and intracellular activity. Ex vivo imaging of MTCQ1 xenografts and fresh human HNSCC specimens showed distinct patterns between tumor and normal tissues, consistent with H&E histology. Dynamic contrast remained stable for 4 h after excision. Quantitative ROI analysis revealed significant differences in epithelial morphology and temporal fluctuation metrics, supporting rapid intraoperative optical characterization of HNSCC.
