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

An integrated solution providing a bi-stable antenna with reconfigurable performance and light-responsive behavior is presented in this paper for the first time. The proposed antenna includes a radiation layer with conductivity, which is integrated onto the bi-stable substrate. First, the effect of the radiation layer material and substrate layer parameters on antenna performance was studied. The experiment showed that an antenna with CNTF has a wider impedance bandwidth than one with CSP, namely 10.37% versus 3.29%, respectively. The resonance frequency increases gradually with the increase in fiber laying density and fiber linear density. Second, the influence of state change of the substrate layer on the antenna radiation pattern was studied. The measured results showed that the maximum radiation angle and gain of states I and II are at 90°, 1.21 dB and 225°, 1.53 dB, respectively. The gain non-circularities of the antenna at states I and II are 4.48 dB and 8.35 dB, respectively, which shows that the antenna has good omnidirectional radiation performance in state I. The display of the array antenna, which shows that the array antenna has good omnidirectional radiation performance in state A, with gain non-circularities of 4.20 dB, proves the feasibility of this bi-stable substrate in reconfigurable antennas. Finally, the antenna deforms from state I to state II when the illumination stimulus reaches 22 s, showing good light-responsive behavior. Moreover, the bi-stable composite antenna has the characteristics of small size, light weight, high flexibility, and excellent integration.
