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

In this article, a dual-band frequency-selective surface (FSS) is proposed for wireless communication systems operating in the sub-6 GHz 5G band and emerging upper-mid-band frequencies considered for future wireless applications. The proposed FSS exhibits two passbands centered at 4.8 GHz and 6.9 GHz, with corresponding reflection coefficients of -33 dB and -25 dB, respectively. The associated -10 dB impedance bandwidths extend from 4.6-5.0 GHz and 6.6-7.2 GHz, providing efficient transmission within the desired operating bands. Between these passbands, the proposed structure exhibits a band-stop response centered at 5.5 GHz, where the transmission coefficient (S21) reaches a minimum value of -40 dB over the frequency range of 5.2-5.8 GHz. This intermediate stopband suppresses unwanted signal transmission, particularly within the Wi-Fi band, thereby improving spectral selectivity and reducing potential interference in multi-band wireless communication environments. Furthermore, the proposed single-layer FSS maintains stable transmission and reflection characteristics under different polarization states and oblique incidence angles up to 60°. The measured results show good agreement with the simulated responses, demonstrating the suitability of the proposed design for applications requiring dual-band transmission and intermediate band-stop filtering in next-generation wireless communication systems.
