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

Second-order elastic topological insulators (SETIs) with tightly localized corner states present a promising avenue for manipulating elastic waves in lower dimensions. However, existing SETIs typically support corner states of only a single mode, either out-of-plane or in-plane. In this work, an on-chip SETI that simultaneously hosts both high-frequency out-of-plane and in-plane corner states at ≈0.2 MHz is introduced. The presence of these corner states is experimentally validated, and their selective excitation by tuning the excitation frequency is demonstrated. This capability to demultiplex out-of-plane and in-plane corner states positions the SETI as a potential platform for developing multifunctional elastic devices and enhancing the communication capacities of elastic waves. Furthermore, due to its structural simplicity, the SETI can be readily scaled and integrated into on-chip elastic circuits, making it suitable for applications in micro-electromechanical systems.
