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

Layered halide perovskites host exceptionally strong excitons, whose optical signatures are usually read as absorptive resonances on a smooth dielectric background. Strong excitons, however, can also reshape the dielectric response itself and drive the real permittivity negative, opening a reflective band─the visible, excitonic analogue of an infrared Reststrahlen band. Whether bare (PEA)2PbI4 slabs reach this regime has remained unclear. Here we show that low-temperature transmission of (PEA)2PbI4 slabs, driven by the intralayer-exciton manifold, evolves with increasing thickness from an excitonic dip into a broad near-zero-transmission interval with compressed Fabry-Pérot-like fringes. Transfer-matrix analysis with an effective Lorentz-oscillator dielectric response reproduces thickness-dependent evolution, reconstructs a finite negative-Re(ε) window, and implies near-ultrastrong exciton-photon coupling. Calculated field maps show suppressed in-plane field penetration within this interval and a driven longitudinal response near the high-energy (ε = 0) edge. These results identify (PEA)2PbI4 slabs as a cavity-free visible-frequency excitonic Reststrahlen material.
