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

Topological photonics offers a powerful platform for robust wave manipulation. However, conventional topological devices rely on opaque substrates, limiting their use in applications requiring optical transparency, such as smart windows and transparent electronics. Here, we demonstrate tightly confined valley surface states (VSSs) in an optically transparent topological metasurface platform based on a hollow-snowflake-wire design. The proposed platform simultaneously achieves over 85% visible transparency, deep-subwavelength vertical confinement, and a footprint half that of conventional topological designs. The resulting VSSs exhibit strong robustness against structural discontinuities and high routing flexibility. By tailoring the edge unit cells, we realize a compact topological meta-diplexer with spatially and spectrally separated channels. Communication experiments under 64-QAM modulation confirm robust in-band transmission with error vector magnitude (EVM)
