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

This study has investigated the impact of inverse G-like shape resonators that exhibited epsilon negative (ENG) and near-zero refractive index (NZI) properties for multi-band wireless communications applications. The electrical measurement of structure is 0.118λ × 0.118λ × 0.021 λ, which is calculated at 3.94 GHz. FR-4 is used as a substrate layer, and the resonator is designed on it. This structure is manifested in the ENG and NZI characteristics within the frequency range of 3.8-4.17, 7.68-8.54, 10.67-11.36 GHz, and 4.07-4.15 and 8.29-8.37 GHz, respectively. This study also manifests the polarization insensitivity nature of 0°-90°, and the incident angle is investigated up to 60° for both TE and TM modes. The proposed structure achieves triple resonance at 3.94 GHz, 8.08 GHz, and 11.17 GHz, respectively, included in the S, C, and X frequency bands. The CST Microwave Studio 2019 software is conducted to design, develop, perform analysis, investigate electromagnetic properties, and extract effective medium parameters. The Advanced Design Software (ADS) is used to model the equivalent circuit of the unit cell. The simulated, measured, and ADS results verified the scattering parameter performance. The EMR value of the structure is 8.47, indicating the structure's compactness. The compact design with simplicity, ENG, and NZI properties make the proposed structure significant for microwave application, mainly to enhance the antenna bandwidth and gain filter design. ENG and NZI properties the operation frequency stability and efficiency for low earth orbit nanosatellite communications.
