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 cellular 5G sub-6 GHz vehicle antenna design with a consistent radiation pattern across the frequency bands in 0.617-5 GHz is demonstrated via characteristic mode analysis. The design focuses on maintaining monopole first-order mode radiation pattern over cellular frequency bands and avoiding higher-order modes out of the operational frequency bands to provide optimal performance for automotive requirements. Rather than using an empirical design method, the design procedure in this paper uses the calculated modal significance, characteristic current, modal radiation pattern, and reflection coefficient to define the antenna structure dimensions. The proposed design was simulated, a prototype was measured, and the performance was evaluated on a 1-m ground plane. The antenna has perfect omnidirectionality with a high and stable gain across the frequency range in the 30° area above the horizon.
