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

Spin-orbit torques enable energy-efficient manipulation of magnetization by electric current and hold promise for applications ranging from non-volatile memory to neuromorphic computing. Here we report the discovery of a giant spin-orbit torque induced by anomalous Hall current in ferromagnetic conductors. This anomalous Hall torque is self-generated as it acts on the magnetization of the ferromagnet that engenders the torque. The magnitude of the anomalous Hall torque is sufficiently large to fully negate magnetic damping of the ferromagnet, which allows us to implement a microwave spin torque nano-oscillator driven by this torque. The peculiar angular symmetry of the anomalous Hall torque favours its use over the conventional spin Hall torque in coupled nano-oscillator arrays. The universal character of the anomalous Hall torque makes it an integral part of the description of coupled spin transport and magnetization dynamics in magnetic nanostructures.
