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 novel miniaturized broadband low-pass filter (LPF) is proposed based on the integrated square dumbbell and meander (SDBM) structure spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs). Compared with the conventional H-shaped and square dumbbell structure SSPP unit-cells, the integrated SDBM structure can effectively reduce its asymptotic frequency, revealing much better slow-wave characteristics. A broadband LPF is designed by integrating two types of SDBM structure SSPP unit-cell to enhance out-of-band suppression. Finite element method (FEM) simulations demonstrate that the SDBM structure SSPPs-based LPF exhibits excellent lowpass characteristics across a broadband range of 0-2.24 GHz, achieving a remarkably high out-of-band rejection level of - 27 dB in a broadband range of 2.39-8.7 GHz. An equivalent LC circuit model is established for the proposed SDBM-structured SSPPs-based LPF, exhibiting a reasonable consistency with the FEM results. The designed LPF is skillfully realized utilizing conventional PCB manufacturing techniques, achieving with a size of only 0.238λ
