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

A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a promising technology for beyond-fifth-generation (B5G) and sixth-generation (6G) wireless communications, but its passive reflection and two-hop double-fading structure make cascaded channel estimation challenging. Conventional convolutional neural network (CNN) estimators require many trainable parameters, while a single shallow parameterized quantum circuit (PQC) may have limited feature representation. Deep quantum circuits can also suffer from noise and barren-plateau effects on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. To address these issues, this paper proposes a multi-filter quantum convolutional neural network (MF-QCNN) for cascaded channel estimation in RIS-assisted multi-user uplink systems. The proposed model uses multiple independent shallow PQC filters in parallel, concatenates their measured features, and estimates the cascaded channel through a compact classical dense head, with the total trainable-parameter count scaling as 182F+696 for
