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

In this work, a multiband polarization converting metasurface is presented which achieves cross-polarization conversion in five frequency bands while linear-to-circular and circular-to-linear polarization transformation in eight frequency bands. The polarization transforming functionality of the structure is spread over an ultra-wide frequency range (5-37 GHz) covering most of X, C, Ku, K and Ka bands. Such an extraordinary ultra-wideband operation originates from multiple plasmonic resonances occurring in the structure based on two coupled rectangular split-ring resonators. Moreover, the polarization transforming capability is stable within the frequency range 5-19 GHz for wide oblique incidence angles, which is up to 60°, both for transverse-electric and transverse-magnetic polarizations. Furthermore, the proposed structure acts as a meta-mirror which preserves handedness of the circular polarization upon reflection. Measurements performed on the fabricated metasurface are found to be consistent with numerical simulation results. The ability to perform three functionalities through a single compact structure with extraordinary wideband, qualifies the proposed design to be a promising candidate for integration with important microwave applications such as satellite, radar, and 5G communication.
