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

Ultrafast all-optical switching (AOS) in ferromagnets has emerged as a promising route toward dense and energy-efficient magnetic memory. However, its implementation has typically been limited by material-specific polarization requirements or by the need for auxiliary exchange coupling and compositional tuning. Here, we demonstrate that deterministic control of AOS can instead be achieved purely through optical engineering. By tailoring the polarization distribution and focusing of the excitation light, we shift the selectivity from intrinsic material properties to external optical beam shaping. In stand-alone [Pt/Co]
