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

Single-packet spatiotemporal optical vortices (STOVs) with transverse orbital angular momentum (OAM) have recently garnered significant attentions. Nevertheless, more advanced applications require diverse transverse OAM modes and multiple STOV wave packets, forming what we term a STOV comb. Analogous to the frequency combs, the STOV comb is a sequence of STOV teeth with each tooth carrying the customized transverse OAM mode. In this work, method for generating the customizable STOV combs and application of STOV combs in information transmission are demonstrated. Theoretical modeling and experimental generation of STOV comb with multiple teeth and diverse topological charges (TCs) is carried out. The strategies for adjusting the TC difference and the spatiotemporal interval between the adjacent STOV teeth are demonstrated and the generation of irregular STOV combs is realized. Besides, the two-channel information encoding and transmission is realized with the dual-tooth STOV combs. Our work generates customizable STOV combs, paving the way for advanced applications of STOV fields.
