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

Terahertz (THz) radiation is rapidly gaining attention for applications in biomedical diagnostics, security, and wireless communication. Polymers play a central role in advancing THz technologies, as they are ideal for lenses, filters, waveguides, and metasurfaces. However, material selection is driven by commercial availability rather than by the rational design of their composition, and progress is hindered by the limited availability of polymers that combine low THz losses with high printability. To address this problem, the relationship between polymer composition and THz transparency in photocurable resins is here investigated, establishing practical guidelines for tailoring THz response through resin composition. A comprehensive framework is developed to predict THz properties based on key structural features, including heteroatoms, cyclic structures, secondary forces, and the carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio. In particular, (meth)-acrylic resins with aliphatic backbones exhibit predictable behavior, enabling the estimation of their THz response directly from the C/O atomic ratio. Using the best-performing formulations, photonic crystals for THz modulation were fabricated via digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. These devices are used to demonstrate how geometric parameters, fabrication precision, and material properties influence the THz devices' response. Comparisons between THz-optimized formulations and commercial resins highlight the importance of combining high printability and THz transparency in the fabrication of functional devices, demonstrating that proper resin design enables the decrease of the absorption coefficient up to 5 cm
