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

Remote passive drone detection in the presence of strong background noise is challenging, since they are point objects and cannot be recognized by their contour detection. In this study, we introduce a new passive single-photon dynamic imaging method using quantum compressed sensing. This method utilizes the inherent randomness of photon radiation and detection to construct a compressive imaging system. It captures the broadband dynamic features of the point object through sparse photon detection, achieving a detectable bandwidth up to 2.05 GHz, which is significantly higher than current photon-counting imaging techniques. The method also shows excellent noise resistance, achieving high-quality imaging with a signal-to-background ratio of 1/332. This technique significantly enhances the use of single-photon imaging in real-world applications.
