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 multi-layered chiral device manifesting asymmetric transmission (AT) facilitating one-way channeling of electromagnetic (EM) waves, based on the inherent polarization is presented. The designed metasurface depicts a high transmission contrast with an efficiency above 80% for an ultra-wide operational range of 6.3-12.3 GHz, constituting a fractional bandwidth of 64%. As an additional feature, the reported metasurface yields robustness against oblique incidences up to 45[Formula: see text] while maintaining high transmission efficiency. This report also introduces a unique analogy of the AT based communication system with logic-gates by formulating its truth-table and logic circuit. Furthermore, new insights of AT magnitude's dependence to oblique incidences are presented on the account of surface impedance mismatch due to TE and TM polarization with varying incidence angle. Moreover, avoidance of grating lobes and the associated transmission deterioration through utilization of electrically small periodic metasurface is presented. The results have been numerically and practically validated yielding state-of-the-art features. Operating within C and X band, the reported work is an ideal candidate for practical AT applications.
