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

Laser Doppler effect enables a wide range of precision measurements. However, its traditional implementations, including linear, rotational, and vectorial forms, have historically been treated as isolated phenomena, and meanwhile, their accuracy is fundamentally limited by the achievable frequency shift magnitude due to single controllable parameter. Here, we report a generalized Doppler effect that overcomes these limitations and enhances metrological accuracy. Such effect arises when tailored vectorially polarized dual-vortex fields derived from spin-orbit coupling interact with moving scatterers. In doing so, we observe four simultaneous spectral signatures in a single measurement, including conventional Doppler signal (DS), Doppler polarization signal (DPS), and two novel Doppler polarization-vortex signals (DPVSs). Crucially, the advanced DPVSs with coupled polarization (m) and orbital angular momentum (ℓ), produce amplified frequency shifts that enhance relative measurement accuracy by factors scaling as κ
