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

Research on phononic crystals with negative refractive indices constitutes the most crucial approach to achieving ultra-high-resolution acoustic lenses. This study presents a glide-reflection (GR) symmetrical phononic crystal (PC), and the mismatch of the Wannier center between two PCs leads to the emergence of edge states (ESs). By constructing a single-domain wall, the negative refraction is achieved due to the excitation of ESs with negative dispersion. Further, by stacking multiple GR symmetric PC interfaces, the coupled edge states (CESs) are found, which originate from the coupling between the adjacent interfaces. Thus, stronger negative sound refraction effects with negative transverse displacement can be achieved, because the incident sound wave can be coupled into the CESs with negative dispersion. Simulation results are conducted using the finite element method to verify our idea, and our research provides a novel methodology for the design of acoustic negative refraction.
