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

A quaternionic metasurface consisting of two pairs of units with destructive phase difference is proposed to extend the bandwidth of radar cross section (RCS) reduction. The two pairs of units are designed to have complementary phase-different bandwidth, which extends the bandwidth of RCS reduction. The overlaps of their bandwidth enhance the RCS reduction, resulting in a metasurface having broadband and strong RCS reduction. This design and the wideband RCS reduction of the quaternionic metasurface were verified by analytical calculation with superposition principle of electric field, numerical simulation with commercial software package CST Microwave Studio and experiment in microwave anechoic chamber. The scattering mechanism and the angular performance of the quaternionic metasurface were also investigated.
