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

A reconfigurable microwave absorber based on double-layer metasurface is proposed for wide microwave band applications spanning 3 to 14 GHz. The absorber consists of two layers with two-dimensional array of four-semi-circular and square-ring metasurface patches loaded impedance devices, two spacers composed of honeycomb materials, and a bottom copper substrate. In order to break through the limitation of single-layer absorbers at finite resonant frequencies, a special double-layered metasurface structure is adopted. The layer I of metasurface is designed with two resonant peaks near the X band and transmission performance in the C band. Simultaneously, the layer II of metasurface is designed with a resonant peak near the C band and reflection performance in the X band. To achieve a reconfigurable effect, impedance adjustable device, such as PIN diodes, are connected between patterned metasurface cells of layer I. The simulation results revealed that the double-layer metasurface absorber can not only achieve broadband absorption effect, with the reflection value below -10 dB from 3.1 to 14.2 GHz, but also adjust the electromagnetic absorption rate, with the reflection value below -20 dB covers a bandwidth of 6.6-9 GHz. The good agreement between simulation and measurement validates the proposed absorber.
