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

The readiness level of 3D glass printing technology for optical fiber development is explored. A preform of an air-glass photonic crystal fiber is printed with synthesized in-house lead borate glass using a custom-made 3D printer. The fiber is single-moded at a wavelength of 1.5 µm and has flat anomalous dispersion in the infrared range above 1.5 µm with a zero-dispersion wavelength at 1.7 µm. An octave spanning supercontinuum from 1.1 to 2.2 µm is obtained by pumping the 22 cm long section of the printed fiber in the anomalous dispersion regime with 100 fs pulses at 1560 nm wavelength using a standard off-the-shelf fiber femtosecond laser. Despite internal structural defects, the results indicate that early-stage 3D glass printing can enable the development of preforms for nonlinear fibers dedicated to supercontinuum generation with spectral widths comparable to state-of-the-art manually assembled PCFs, but still with considerably higher losses.
