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.
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
Photonic crystal surface-emitting lasers (PCSELs) are promising light sources with numerous advantages, including vertical emission, single-mode operation, and high output power. However, the fabrication of PCSEL devices requires advanced techniques, such as wafer bonding or epitaxial regrowth, to form a photonic crystal (PhC) structure close to the central waveguide layer. This process is not only complicated but also necessitates multiple semiconductor epitaxies, which reduces fabrication yield and increases manufacturing costs. In this study, we introduce a simpler method for fabricating PCSELs that requires only a single dry-etch run on any standard edge-emitting laser diode epistructure. The key challenge of creating an array of PhC air holes deep enough to reach the waveguide layer is addressed through high-temperature, high-plasma-density dry etching. PCSEL devices fabricated using this method lased in single mode at a threshold current density as low as ∼0.8 kA/cm
