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

Catenary functions are exciting and fundamental building blocks in constructing various kinds of waves in subwavelength structures. Here, a simple yet powerful approach inspired by catenary optics is proposed to realize efficient manipulation of electromagnetic waves in terms of both amplitude and phase. By properly engineering the catenary electromagnetic fields and frequency dispersion, lightweight metafilm-based broadband absorbers with polarization-independent bandwidth covering 0.65-6.2 GHz are experimentally achieved, and the bandwidth is further broadened to 0.9-40 GHz. With the same approach, a large-scale flat antenna based on generalized reflection is demonstrated in the satellite communication system. To enable the batch manufacturing, a flexible substrate-based microfabrication process is developed with a minimum feature size of down to sub-micrometer and total size up to almost 1 m. These results may provide important guidance for the design of metasurface-based devices.
