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 paper presents an approach for designing metasurface antennas using the characteristic mode analysis method for 5G mm-wave multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) systems. The proposed metasurface antenna consists of a 3 × 3 array of modified patches with additional slits and stubs, which are fed by a coupling slot. This configuration reshapes surface currents and improves the radiation performance across a broad frequency range. The design offers significant advantages such as reduced antenna size, minimized influence of higher-order modes, and maintained low cross-polarization (XP) level. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed metasurface-based slot antenna provides a bandwidth of 29.6% (23-31 GHz) with a return loss better than 10 dB. It achieves a peak gain of 9.43 dB and exhibits an XP level below - 26 dB and - 48 dB at
