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

Wavefront sensing (WFS) is fundamental to adaptive optics, astronomical observation, biological microscopy, and free-space optical communications. However, conventional approaches-including Shack-Hartmann sensors, shearing interferometers, and transport of intensity equation-based methods-are inherently limited by trade-offs among spatial sampling density, angular dynamic range, and device compactness and have rarely been extended to the mid-infrared range. Here, we propose an on-chip mid-infrared wavefront sensing scheme operating based on vectorial photocurrent manipulation and analyze the properties of the proposed device through finite-element simulations. The proposed device comprises a hexagonal array of antenna-integrated graphene pixels, each equipped with three contacts and a microlens. Based on the antenna-induced vectorial photocurrent manipulation, angle-dependent absorption is translated into photocurrent signals, potentially enabling unambiguous recovery of both the elevation and azimuth angles of the incident light over an effective angular dynamic range of ±28°. The hexagonal layout provides a high spatial sampling density of 11,547 mm
