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.
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
This study introduces a novel approach for multi-incident-angle neutron reflectometry utilizing metallic elliptical supermirrors to enable the simultaneous focusing of two distinct neutron beams. The supermirror is composed of depth-graded NiC/Ti multilayers and functions as a reflector for grazing-incidence neutrons. Two mirror pairs consisting of precise elliptical supermirrors with diamond-machined and polished Ni-P-plated Al-Si alloy substrates were fabricated. Thermal deformation is minimized by this Al-Si alloy, which has a thermal expansion coefficient similar to that of Ni-P. The focusing performance was evaluated using the SOFIA neutron reflectometer located at BL16, Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility, Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex. The experimental results confirmed that the two neutron beams converged to a single spot with a full width at half-maximum of 0.26 mm. Optimizing the simultaneous focusing of dual beams presents technical challenges that warrant further investigation in the future.
