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

High resolution imaging represents a relentless pursuit within the field of optical system. Multi-frame super-resolution (SR) is an effective method for enhancing sampling density, while it heavily relies on sub-pixel scale displacement of a bulky camera. Based on the symmetric transformation of quadratic-phase metasurface, we propose scaled transverse translation (STT) utilizing planar optical elements (POEs) to facilitate sub-pixel sampling and remote super-resolution imaging. The STT module composed of a pair of planar optical elements with conjugated quadratic phase profile is fabricated and experimentally verified. By displacing POE within a millimeter-level range, we achieve sub-micron in imaging shift accuracy. Furthermore, the results of SR and SR enhanced Fourier ptychography imaging demonstrate significant compatibility and effectiveness of this module. The resolution improvement in FP imaging increases from 2× to 2.8× by sub-pixel sampling using this module. Moreover, defect reduction and contrast enhancement are obtained. With its advantages of light-weight, simple structure and ease of implementation, this method shows considerable potential for numerous imaging applications.
