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

We report the development and characterisation of highly miniaturised fibre-optic sensors for simultaneous pressure and temperature measurement, and a compact interrogation system with a high sampling rate. The sensors, which have a maximum diameter of 250 µm, are based on multiple low-finesse optical cavities formed from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), positioned at the distal ends of optical fibres, and interrogated using phase-resolved low-coherence interferometry. At acquisition rates of 250 Hz, temperature and pressure changes of 0.0021 °C and 0.22 mmHg are detectable. An in vivo experiment demonstrated that the sensors had sufficient speed and sensitivity for monitoring dynamic physiological pressure waveforms. These sensors are ideally suited to various applications in minimally invasive surgery, where diminutive lateral dimensions, high sensitivity and low manufacturing complexities are particularly valuable.
