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

This paper presents a new antenna proximity sensor for mobile terminals based on the measured reflection coefficient using a bidirectional coupler which is positioned between the main antenna and the front-end module. Using the coupled forward and reverse long-term evolution signals by the bidirectional coupler, the reflection coefficient looking into the antenna was calculated in the base-band processor. The measured reflection coefficients showed clear differences for both the types of objects, and the distances between the terminal and the objects. The proposed antenna proximity sensor showed a recognition distance that was approximately 5 mm longer than that of a conventional capacitive proximity sensor.
