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

Thermal emission from a conventional blackbody is inherently incoherent. Non-Kirchhoff thermal emitters, which exploit nontrivial nonreciprocal properties, enable unprecedented control over both the spatial and temporal coherence of thermal emission with enhanced degrees of freedom. Although violations of Kirchhoff's law have been demonstrated, achieving strong nonreciprocity while suppressing the rainbow effect across ultrawide angular ranges remains an open challenge. This study demonstrates a pattern-free Fabry-Pérot resonator comprising Weyl semimetal/germanium heterostructures on a silver substrate that achieves rainbow-free nonreciprocal thermal emission with exceptional angular stability. The Weyl semimetal serves dual functions: simultaneously breaking Lorentz reciprocity and providing dynamic phase shift compensation, enabling the structure to maintain nonreciprocity exceeding 0.6 or 0.8 across an ultrawide angular range of Δ
