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

We propose and demonstrate a silicon photonic optical phased array (OPA) with ultra-low sidelobe level. The arbitrary ratio power splitters (ARPSs) are introduced to manipulate the amplitude distribution between different channels and suppress the sidelobe level. A 32-channel OPA has been designed and demonstrated with the amplitude distribution determined by preferred Chebyshev method. The experimental results indicate that the sidelobe suppression ratio (SLSR) can be up to 25.3 dB. The measured field of view (FOV) is 84° × 13° with divergence of 2.8° × 1.7°. Furthermore, the frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) based ranging has been also demonstrated experimentally by utilizing the OPA as the transmitter.
