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

The liquid-core anti-resonant fiber (LCARF) has emerged as a versatile platform for applications in nonlinear photonics, biological sensing, and other domains. In this study, a systematic and comprehensive analysis of LCARF was conducted via the finite element method to evaluate its performance across a wavelength range of 400-1200 nm. This included an assessment of the effects of structural parameters such as capillary wall thickness and the ratio of cladding tube diameter to core diameter on confinement loss and effective refractive index. The results reveal that the proposed core-only-filled approach significantly reduces the confinement loss compared to the conventional fully filled approach, thus facilitating signal transmission. Furthermore, the optimization of geometrical parameters greatly improves the single-mode characteristics of LCARFs. This work establishes a robust theoretical framework and provides valuable support for enhancing the LCARF applications in optofluidics, thereby contributing to the evolution of specialty fiber technologies.
