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

Pulsed lasers have a wide range of applications in scientific and industrial fields, and the saturable absorber (SA) is the core device of pulsed lasers. Tungsten carbide (WC) has garnered significant attention due to its exceptional physicochemical properties, making it a promising candidate for optoelectronic applications, particularly as an SA in pulse lasers. This study is the first to report the nonlinear optical properties of WC thin film at a 1064 nm wavelength and its use as an SA device to generate pulsed lasers. A high damage threshold of 472.4 mJ/cm
