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

Without discrete pixels or wired leads, natural plant leaves respond to light and relay electrochemical signals to surrounding tissues through nanoscale chlorophyll-containing protein complexes - an elegant capability sought in next-generation leadless optoelectronic systems. Although semiconductors and their heterojunctions are commonly employed to mimic photosynthesis, nanoplasmonic structures offer a largely untapped alternative. Harnessing plasmonic hot carriers for macroscopic systems remains challenging, limiting applications in tissue-level neuromodulation and human-machine interfaces. We introduce a hot-carrier artificial leaf optoelectronic device, formed by thermally self-organized 3D gold-titanium dioxide units on ultrathin membranes. These nanoplasmonic interfaces enhance visible-light optoelectronic responsiveness at sub-100-nm thickness, support highly localized hot-carrier injection, and exhibit stable, linear performance over a wide range of light intensities, overcoming the material, bandgap, and carrier diffusion limits of conventional semiconductors. The resulting nanoplasmonic devices enable leadless, multimodal optoelectronic modulation and pixel-less optical pattern recognition, presenting a potentially scalable platform for hot carrier-enabled biomedical, nanophotonic, and human-machine interface technologies.
