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

Lapping the surfaces of Si(111) crystals in a double-crystal monochromator (DCM) has recently been shown to increase the 100 keV X-ray beam intensity by nearly an order of magnitude, raising the need for a reliable experimental evaluation of the resulting beam quality, particularly wavelength spread (energy bandwidth) and angular divergence. To address this need, a method for determining the wavelength-angle distribution of high-energy X-ray beams is developed by interpreting rocking-curve measurements as projections in wavelength-angle (DuMond) space and reconstructing the distribution using an iterative computed-tomography approach. When applied to beams produced with polished and lapped Si(111) DCMs, the method reproduces the DuMond prediction for perfect crystals and reveals systematic changes in wavelength spread while the angular divergence remains nearly unchanged. These results demonstrate a practical framework for experimentally characterizing the wavelength-angle distributions of high-energy X-ray beams, providing a basis for understanding and optimizing beam properties beyond conventional one-dimensional metrics.
