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

Photoacoustic and thermoacoustic detection methods, including picosecond ultrasonic laser sonar based on metallic thin films, are widely used in industrial applications for their noninvasiveness. Herein, we present our findings on the phase advance effect of laser-induced picosecond ultrasonic signals in surface plasmon detection in Al nanofilms. Al has been extensively studied as a promising surface plasmon material in the ultraviolet region. Reflection time-resolved spectroscopy was integrated with a Kretschmann configuration to study the optical detection mechanisms with and without meeting the surface plasmon phase-matching condition. Through a comparison of the phase changes in picosecond ultrasonic pulses at different optical detection angles, we attributed the observed phase delay modification to the displacement of the detection region under the surface plasmon phase-matching condition.
