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

Nanoparticle (NP) doping of optical fibres can be used to increase the intensity of the backscattered light used for distributed strain sensing and has shown the advantages of high precision strain detection and multiplex sensing experimentally. However, the backscatter spectral characteristics of NP-doped optical fibres have not been described even though they are quite different from the spectra from fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) or commercial single mode fibres. In this paper, gold NPs, used as the contrast agent in the optical fibre to increase the intensity of the backscattered light, were investigated from the aspect of their spectra. A single scattering model with Mie theory and an effective refractive index (RI) model were used to evaluate the backscattered light spectra and the Monte Carlo Method was used for seeding NPs. The results showed that the strain responsivity of gold-NP doped fibres with low volume ratio doping (single scattering restriction) are close to FBGs and commercial fibres. High volume ratios of gold NP doping increase the imaginary part of the RI of the optical fibre, which has a significant influence on the spectra in the wavenumber domain. These theoretical insights may promote the future engineering design of NP-doped fibre sensors.
