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

Excessive exposure to ultraviolet radiation poses serious risks to human health, necessitating the development of reliable personal UV monitoring devices. For practical use, such devices must be versatile, UV selective, and capable of providing detailed feedback on cumulative dosage. In this work, thermally evaporated CuBr thin films are employed as UV dosimeters. Owing to charge trapping at CuBr grain boundaries and surface oxide formation, the devices exhibit sustained current increase under prolonged UV exposure. The device response is markedly stronger under UV-A illumination compared to UV-B or UV-C exposure. Wearable UV dosimeters are then constructed by integrating the CuBr films with a custom-designed battery-powered circuit, enabling real-time quantification of ambient solar dosage. Additionally, with increasing solar dose, CuBr films deposited on white ceramic substrates exhibit a distinct color transition from soft amber to dark brown, facilitating dual-mode UV dosimetry. Wavelength-tunable responses are also achieved: first, by incorporating a top TiO
