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 three-dimensional description of spin-dependent current transport across nonmagnetic/ferromagnetic interfaces with strong interfacial spin-orbit coupling is presented. The resulting current-induced torques acting on the magnetization of the ferromagnetic layer are addressed. By considering both magnetic exchange and Rashba spin-orbit interactions at the interface, the angular dependence of the spin-orbit torques in Pt/Co and Ta/CoFeB systems is reproduced. In line with two-dimensional Rashba models, the Rashba-Edelstein effect drives the strong field-like torque, with the unconventional angular dependence being most pronounced, when magnetic exchange and spin-orbit interaction strengths are comparable. Furthermore, the spin currents generated through spin-orbit precession and filtering are shown to produce all three spin-polarization components, depending on the magnetization direction. Utilizing these mechanisms in current-in-plane trilayers could potentially enable field-free perpendicular and type-x switching, which is crucial for advancing the miniaturization of spintronic devices.
