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

Terahertz spectroscopy is a powerful tool to resolve molecular fingerprints by detecting their vibrational and rotational modes, and has great application potential in chemistry and biomedicine. However, the limited sensitivity and poor specificity restrict its applications in these areas, where trace amounts of analytes need to be identified effectively and accurately. Here, we propose a sensing scheme for enhancing molecular fingerprints based on angle-scanning of terahertz waves on an all-silicon metasurface. The metasurface consists of a periodic array of silicon cylinder dimers arranged in a square lattice. An ultrasharp guided mode resonance governed by bound states in the continuum can be excited by elaborately arranging the silicon cylinder dimers. By utilizing the angle-scanning strategy, two kinds of saccharides are successfully identified with extremely high sensitivity. Specifically, the detection limits for lactose and glucose are 1.53 μg cm
