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 research article proposes and numerically investigates a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) based on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor for the detecting refractive index (RI) of unknown analytes. The plasmonic material (gold) layer is placed outside of the PCF by removing two air holes from the main structure, and a D-shaped PCF-SPR sensor is formed. The purpose of using a plasmonic material (gold) layer in a PCF structure is to introduce an SPR phenomenon. The structure of the PCF is likely enclosed by the analyte to be detected, and an external sensing system is used to measure changes in the SPR signal. Moreover, a perfectly matched layer (PML) is also placed outside of the PCF to absorb unwanted light signals towards the surface. The numerical investigation of all guiding properties of the PCF-SPR sensor is completed using a fully vectorial-based finite element method (FEM) to achieve the finest sensing performance. The design of the PCF-SPR sensor is completed using COMSOL Multiphysics software, version 1.4.50. According to the simulation results, the proposed PCF-SPR sensor has a maximum wavelength sensitivity of 9000 nm/RIU, an amplitude sensitivity of 3746 RIU
