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

Optical encoders are widely used circuits in digital systems. One of the most critical features of an optical encoder is the power values in two logic states; low and high. The difference between these two values is expressed with the contrast ratio (CR) parameter. This research has designed and simulated an optical encoder based on a two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal with four inputs and two outputs. The results show that the proposed structure has low power in low mode and high intensity in high mode. This difference in two logical modes has caused the proposed encoder to have CR = 19.8 dB, which is improved compared to previous works. Also, the proposed structure is very compact and its footprint is as small as 96.88 µm
