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

As a special type of collinear antiferromagnetism (AFM), altermagnetism has garnered significant research interest recently. Altermagnets exhibit broken parity-time symmetry and zero net magnetization, leading to substantial band splitting in the momentum space. Meanwhile, parity-time symmetry breaking is a prerequisite for nontrivial band topology in Weyl physics. When there is band crossing, it is usually easy to generate Weyl nodes. Weyl semimetal states have been theoretically proposed in altermagnets; rare reports of experimental observation have been made up to this point. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and first-principles calculations, we systematically studied the electronic structure of room-temperature altermagnet candidate CrSb. We clearly observed the band spin splitting and signature of topological surface states on the (100) cleaved side surface close to the Fermi level originating from bulk band topology. Our results imply that CrSb contains interesting nontrivial topological Weyl physics, in addition to being an excellent room temperature altermagnet.
