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

The article entitled "Fast and accurate electromagnetic field calculation for substrate-supported metasurfaces using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA)" written by W. Liu and E. McLeod presents a method for computing the Green function in presence of a substrate or multilayer in an efficient way. Unfortunately, the proposed method has been known for more than twenty years and significantly ameliorated. It can be found in its optimized version in some open-source DDA codes. In this comment, we recall the different approaches (and related papers) addressing the computation of the Green function of a multilayered system. We show that they address all the points raised by Liu and McLeod in their paper and provide more efficient solutions to their computational issues.
