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

Due to their low losses, dielectric metamaterials provide an ideal resolution to construct ultra-narrowband absorbers. To improve the sensing performance, we present numerically a near-infrared ultra-narrowband absorber by putting ultra-sparse dielectric nanowire grids on metal substrate in this paper. The simulation results show that the absorber has an absorption rate larger than 0.99 with full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of 0.38 nm. The simulation field distribution also indicates that the ultra-narrowband absorption is originated from the low loss in the guided-mode resonance. Thanks to the ultra-narrow absorption bandwidths and the electric field mainly distributed out of the ultra-sparse dielectric nanowire grids, our absorber has a high sensitivity S of 1052 nm/RIU and a large figure of merit (FOM) of 2768 which mean that this ultra-narrowband absorber can be applied as a high-performance refractive index sensor.
