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

Hollow-core anti-resonant fiber technology has made a rapid progress in low loss broadband transmission, enabled by its much reduced light-material overlap. This unique characteristic has driven emerging of new applications spanning from extreme wavelength generation to beam delivery. The successful demonstrations appear to suggest progression of the technology toward device level development and all-fiberized systems. We investigate this opportunity and report an in-fiber interferometer built in a dual hollow-core anti-resonant fiber. By placing multiple air cores in a single fiber, coherently interacting transverse modes are excited, which becomes a basis of an interferometer. We use this hollow core based inherent supermodal interaction to demonstrate highly sensitive in-fiber interferometer. Unique combination of the air guidance and the supermodal interaction offers robust, simple yet highly sensitive interferometer with suppressed temperature cross-talk that has been an enduring problem in fiber strain sensing applications. The in-fiber interferometer is further investigated as a sensing element for pressure measurement based on an interferometric phase change upon external strain. The interferometer features 39.3 nm/MPa of ultrahigh sensitivity with 0.14 KPa/°C of negligible gas pressure temperature crosstalk. The performance, which is much improved from prior fiber sensors, testifies advances of hollow core fiber technology toward a device level.
