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

The rapid expansion of terahertz (THz) communication, nondestructive testing and biosensing puts forward urgent demands for absorbers with switchable working bandwidth, yet parts of existing graphene-based absorbers adopt costly noble-metal backplanes and can hardly realize reversible narrow and broadband absorption conversion. In this work, a three-layer metamaterial absorber is designed, where low-cost tungsten replaces precious metals as reflective substrate, polyimide serves as intermediate dielectric and patterned graphene composes the top absorbing layer. The finite element method (FEM) is employed to investigate the synergistic modulation of THz absorption characteristics by graphene's Fermi level (
