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 study, we propose a novel wideband aperture-coupled magneto-electric (ME) dipole antenna that achieves enhanced bandwidth by simultaneously leveraging ME resonance and aperture-coupled excitation. Building upon the conventional ME dipole architecture, the antenna integrates a pair of horizontal metal patches forming the electric dipole and a pair of vertical metal patches forming the magnetic dipole. A key innovation is the aperture-coupled feeding mechanism, where electromagnetic energy is transferred from a tapered microstrip line to the dipole structure through a slot etched in the ground plane. This design not only excites the characteristic ME resonances effectively but also significantly improves impedance matching, delivering a markedly broader impedance bandwidth. To validate the proposed concept, a prototype antenna was fabricated and experimentally characterized. Measurements show an impedance bandwidth of 84.48% (3.61-8.89 GHz) for S11 ≤ -10 dB and a maximum in-band gain of 7.88 dBi. The antenna also maintains a stable, unidirectional radiation pattern across the operating band, confirming its potential for wideband applications such as 5G wireless communications.
