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

In this article, we present a terahertz (THz) metamaterial absorber that blends two types of coordinated materials: Dirac semimetals and vanadium dioxide. Compared to other absorbers on the market, which are currently non-adjustable or have a single adjustment method, our absorber is superior because it has two coordinated modes with maximum adjustment ranges of 80.7% and 0.288 THz. The device contains four flawless absorption peaks (M1, M2, M3, and M4) spanning the frequency range of 2.0 THz to 6.0 THz, all with absorption rates greater than 99%. After calculation, the relative impedance of the device matches with that in free space, resulting in perfect absorption. In addition, our absorber has extremely excellent polarization insensitivity but is highly sensitive to changes in the environmental refractive index, with the highest environmental refractive index sensitivity of 716 GHz/RIU (gigahertz per refractive index unit). To sum up, the terahertz metamaterial absorber we showed has four perfect absorption peaks, high sensitivity, and stable polarization. This means it could be useful in areas like changing electromagnetic waves, making new sensors, and switching.
