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

Major challenges affecting polarizers for communication systems include the inability to perform over a wide bandwidth with a simple design. Orthogonal outgoing polarization for polarization-diverse applications and stable performances for oblique incidence angles are also major requirements. This paper presents the design of a polarizer that can perform over a wide range of bandwidths in dual frequency bands. The unit cell is uniquely designed using a split circular ring resonator enclosed in a square ring with the addition of three-square patches. As a result, the incoming linearly polarized x(y) wave is converted into a transmitted LHCP (RHCP) wave in the Ku and Ka bands. The operational bandwidths are 11.05~16.75 GHz (41%) and 34.16~43.03 GHz (23%). The proposed polarizer is ultrathin, works in dual wide-bands, is polarization-diverse, and maintains performance over ±45° and ±30° oblique incidences, which makes it a strong candidate for many communication systems.
