Revealing Lunar Far-Side Polarization Characteristics via FeO Abundance Distribution Correlations with Ground-Based Polarimetric Data.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Due to the tidal locking, the far side of the Moon is permanently turned away from the Earth. Its polarization characteristics are still poorly understood, limiting our knowledge of material composition and evolution. Previous studies have indicated a correlation between the distributions of degree of polarization (DOP) and the iron oxide (FeO) abundance on the Moon, suggesting a new approach to infer the polarization characteristics of the lunar far side from FeO abundance distribution. Three critical issues have been analyzed: (1) A linear regression model between DOP and FeO abundance is proposed based on control points from ground-based near side polarization images. (2) The DOP distribution of the lunar far side is estimated, based on the established model, revealing significant hemispheric differences in polarization characteristics. (3) The relationship between DOP and lunar phase angle is examined, with the fitted values demonstrating strong agreement with the observations in both magnitude and variation trend. These insights offer valuable guidance for comprehensive polarimetric studies of the Moon.
