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 paper presents a compact coaxial-fed square microstrip patch antenna integrated with a beam-steering Partially Reflective Surface (PRS). The proposed design has a two-dimensional (2-D) Fabry-Perot Cavity (FPC) antenna acting as a radiator and the PRS as a beam-steering superstrate operating at 5.5 GHz. The PRS consists of 6 × 6 reconfigurable unit cells etched on Rogers 5880 with a thickness of 1.57 mm. By controlling the switching of PIN diodes in different sections of PRS, beam steering can be achieved up to ±47° in the azimuth plane with a gain of 9.1 dB and 10.2 dB and ± 15° steering in an elevation plane with a measured gain of 9.3 dB and 8.9 dB, respectively. The antenna prototype is 2.56 λ × 2.56 λ at 5.5 GHz, and the measured gain values are around 10 dBi for all the states. The beam is able to radiate at boresight or tilted to 42° in two azimuthal directions and 45° in elevation direction by adjusting the PIN diodes ON/OFF states. The 10 dB impedance bandwidth of 5.4-5.52 GHz is achieved.
