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

In this paper, a novel type of polarization-insensitive terahertz metal metasurface with cross-shaped holes is presented, which is designed based on the theory of bound states in continuous media. The fundamental unit of the metasurface comprises a metal tungsten sheet with a cross-shaped hole structure. A thorough analysis of the optical properties and the quasi-BIC response is conducted using the finite element method. Utilizing the symmetry-breaking theory, the symmetry of the metal metasurface is broken, allowing the excitation of double quasi-BIC resonance modes with a high quality factor and high sensitivity to be achieved. Analysis of the multipole power distribution diagram and the spatial distribution of the electric field at the two quasi-BIC resonances verifies that the two quasi-BIC resonances of the metasurface are excited by electric dipoles and electric quadrupoles, respectively. Further simulation analysis demonstrates that the refractive index sensitivities of the two quasi-BIC modes of the metasurface reach 404.5 GHz/RIU and 578.6 GHz/RIU, respectively. Finally, the functional material PHMB is introduced into the metasurface to achieve highly sensitive sensing and detection of CO
