Metasurface-assisted multimodal quantum imaging.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Traditional quantum imaging is featured by remarkable sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio, but limited by bulkiness and static function (either phase contrast imaging or edge detection). Our report synergizes a polarization-entangled source with a metasurface consisting of various sophisticatedly engineered spatial frequency segments. By tuning polarization, we demonstrate multiple "on"-state quantum imaging modes, enabling flexible switching between phase contrast, edge, and arbitrary superimposed imaging mode. Furthermore, the "off"-state, which characterizes the background noise, enables self-calibration of the system by subtracting this noise in "on"-state modes, resulting in self-enhanced edge detection. Our approach performs phase contrast imaging with a phase difference of π/4 present in the target object, and edge imaging capable of detecting tiny (radius about 2 μm) defects, maintaining high image contrast (phase contrast of 0.726, and enhanced edge contrast of 0.902). Our results provide insights into constructive duet between quantum imaging and metaoptics.
