3D printed microfluidic viscometer based on the co-flowing stream.

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
Considering the role of viscosity in the dynamics of physical, chemical, and biological systems, accurate measurement of viscosity is essential. Although many conventional viscometers have been widely used, these conventional viscometers suffer from some drawbacks. In this study, a three-dimensional (3D) printed microfluidic viscometer was proposed based on the estimation of the pressure between two fluids to easily measure viscosity with small samples. The 3D printed microfluidic viscometer can be fabricated through amine-epoxy bonding on 3D printed blocks. By separately delivering samples and reference fluids into two inlets, an interfacial line could be induced. Based on the relation between the pressure ratio and the width of the reference flow, the viscosity (
