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

Detecting and controlling the chirality of matter play an essential role in exploring nature, providing previously unexplored avenues for matter discrimination and quantum manipulation. In such tasks, chiral probes are essential in defining or enhancing the chiral dichroism response. However, overlooking their influence on the symmetry of the medium hampers the ability to deterministically induce electromagnetic chirality. Here, we propose a simple yet versatile all-optical chirality transfer method to generate and manipulate the electromagnetic chirality of a neutral atomic medium. By inducing chirality-dependent dispersion in the atomic system, our method enables deterministic and tunable control of chirality transfer via a helical field. We theoretically analyze the mechanism of this optically induced symmetry breaking and experimentally demonstrate the helicity-dependent response of the medium. Our results show that the induced chirality can be effectively suppressed or enhanced, enabling deterministic electromagnetic enantioselection. This approach opens an efficient pathway for manipulating chiral symmetry breaking in light-matter interactions.
