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

The use of surface plasmon resonance sensors allows for the fabrication of highly sensitive, label-free analytical devices. This contribution reports on a grating coupler to enable surface plasmon resonance studies using silver on silicon oxide technology to build long-term stable plasmonic structures for biological molecule sensing. The structural parameters were simulated and the corresponding simulation model was optimized based on the experimental results to improve its reliability. Based on the model, optimized grating nanostructures were fabricated on an oxidized silicon wafer with different structural parameters and characterized using a dedicated optical setup and scanning electron microscopy. The combined theoretical and experimental results show that the most relevant refractive index range for biological samples from 1.32-1.46 may conveniently be covered with a highest sensitivity of 128.85°/RIU.
