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

All-optical logic devices require nonreciprocal wave propagation, which is often achieved by resonance or nonlinear effects at the cost of limited transmitted modes, wavelengths, and overall energy efficiency. By leveraging the inherited feedback loops, the nature-inspired self-regulated soft actuators could act as "gatekeepers" to identify the wave propagation direction to achieve similar logic functions in linear optics. Here, we report an effective design for all-optical diodes, transistors, and logic gates using self-regulated soft waveguides. These soft optomechanical systems, which are fabricated from hydrogels and liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), exhibit direction recognition, autonomous alignment and selective transmission, achieving wavelength- and polarization-independent processing of signals and high overall efficiency. This versatile platform presents extended capabilities of integrated soft robotics and embodied intelligent material systems.
