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

Room-temperature (RT) terahertz (THz) detection finds widespread applications in security inspection, communication, biomedical imaging, and scientific research. However, the state-of-the-art detection strategies are still limited by issues such as low sensitivity, narrow response range, slow response speed, complex fabrication techniques, and difficulties in scaling up to large arrays. Here, we present a high-sensitivity, broadband-response, and high-speed RT THz detection strategy by utilizing a deep subwavelength metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) structure. The spontaneously formed 2-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the CdTe/PbTe interface provides a superior transport channel characterized by high carrier concentration, low scattering, and high mobility. The synergy of the electromagnetic induced well effect formed in the MSM structure, and the efficient and rapid transport capabilities of the 2DEG channel give rise to an impressive performance improvement. The proposed 2DEG photodetector exhibits a broad frequency range from 22 to 519 GHz, an ultralow noise equivalent power of 3.0 × 10
