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

Quantum error correction is needed for quantum computers to be capable of executing algorithms using hundreds of logical qubits in a fault-tolerant manner. Recent experiments have progressed towards this by demonstrating sufficiently low error rates for state preservation of a single logical qubit. However, quantum computation algorithms also require that these logical qubits can be entangled and that gate operations can be performed on them. Lattice surgery is a technique that offers a practical approach for implementing such gates, particularly in planar quantum processor layouts. Here we demonstrate lattice surgery between two distance-three repetition-code qubits by splitting a single distance-three surface-code qubit. Using a quantum circuit that is fault-tolerant for bit-flip errors, we achieve an improvement in the value of the decoded
