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

This study presents a novel pseudospin-polarized waveguide with closed boundaries, designed using complementary metasurfaces with dual surface impedances. By enforcing electromagnetic duality, the proposed structure establishes mirror reflection symmetry, significantly reducing backscattering and ensuring robust one-way wave propagation. The waveguide effectively suppresses backward-propagating modes, even in the presence of bends and structural discontinuities, making it a highly stable and efficient platform for guided-wave applications. With an ultra-wide operating bandwidth spanning 7-350 GHz, the waveguide exhibits exceptional isolation levels exceeding - 0.5 dB, ensuring minimal signal loss. To achieve precise performance predictions, we employ a rigorous variational method to calculate the surface impedance of the metasurfaces, enhancing the accuracy of analytical and numerical results. Leveraging these unique propagation characteristics, we design a high-performance ultra-wideband filter based on complementary split-ring resonators. It offers strong stopband attenuation with minimal insertion loss. This makes the proposed filter an excellent candidate for next-generation microwave and millimeter-wave systems, including wireless communications, radar, and high-frequency signal processing. By integrating pseudospin physics with electromagnetic duality, this work establishes a new paradigm in waveguide design, demonstrating how complementary metasurfaces can enable low-loss, broadband, and highly efficient unidirectional wave propagation for advanced electromagnetic applications.
