Quantum dot LEDs emitting broadband vortex beams.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The past few years have witnessed impressive developments in optical sources capable of emitting structured forms of light, such as optical vortices or vector beams. Because structured beams result from carefully engineered interferences, their synthesis requires coherent light and all the sources demonstrated so far rely on coherent lasing cavities-usually pumped with external optical schemes. Here, we introduce non-lasing sources emitting directional vortex beams upon electrical injection. Their architecture consists of colloidal PbS quantum dot LEDs that integrate a photonic environment with two complementary functions: to make the emitters populate radial photonic modes with extended spatial coherence, and to structure the leakage of these modes into free space. Our electrically-pumped sources exhibit phase singularities across the electroluminescence spectrum of the quantum dots, leading to vortex light emission with a bandwidth of 300 nm in the near-infrared.
