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

Terahertz (THz) technology has attracted significant global interest, particularly in sensing applications, due to its nonionizing feature and sensitivity to weak interactions. Recently, owing to the advantages of low optical loss and the capability to support both electric and magnetic high-quality factor (high-Q) resonances, dielectric metasurfaces have emerged as a powerful platform for multiscenario terahertz sensing applications. This review summarizes recent advancements in dielectric metasurface-assisted THz sensing. We begin with an overview of the mechanisms and properties of dielectric metasurfaces with high-Q factors. Next, we discuss typical fabrication techniques for these terahertz dielectric metasurfaces. We then explore the diverse terahertz sensing applications across various scenarios, including biomolecule sensing, biomedical detection, environmental monitoring, and chiral sensing. Finally, we provide perspectives on the future development of this promising research field.
