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

Surface lattice resonances (SLRs) in metasurfaces have become a transformative platform for subwavelength optical devices. However, current high quality-factor (high-Q) SLR implementations are fundamentally limited by their dependence on homogeneous dielectric environments. To overcome this limitation, we introduce guided-surface lattice resonances (gSLRs) by integrating nanoparticle arrays within slab waveguides. This configuration facilitates efficient coupling between scattered light and Bloch modes, enabling high-Q multimodal resonances even in index-discontinuous environments, realizing a quality-factor (Q-factor) of 1489. The coupling strength and resonance intensity of these multimodal gSLRs can be continuously modulated by adjusting the vertical displacement of the nanoparticle arrays within the slab layers. To augment the sensitivity to local dielectric variations, we investigate gSLRs in metasurfaces integrated with metallic substrates, demonstrating suitability for biosensors. A mathematical sensing model, incorporating biochemical reaction kinetics and optical responses, is established and validated through bovine serum albumin (BSA) sensing, achieving a limit-of-detection as low as 0.65 pM.
