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

Liquid lens offers a novel approach to achieving large depth of field, wide viewing angle, high speed, and high-quality imaging in zoom optical systems. However, the aperture and reliability limit the lens's performance in various optical applications. The liquid material is crucial for the reliability of the large-aperture liquid lens. To solve the dielectric failure problem associated with the large aperture, we first reveal the mechanism of dielectric failure based on the transport properties of electrolyte solutions and the impact of electrochemical reaction rates from physical chemistry so as to propose a theoretical method to suppress dielectric failure fundamentally. Based on this theory, we develop a series of non-aqueous organic solutions to suppress high-voltage dielectric failure. Next, we identify the optimal formulation for comprehensive optical performance and fabricate a centimeter-level large-aperture electrowetting liquid lens. This lens features an optical power variation range of -11.98 m
