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

Measuring fluid pressure in microchannels is difficult and constitutes a challenge to even the most experienced of experimentalists. Currently, to the best of the authors' knowledge, no optimal solution are being used for the design of pressure taps, nor guidelines concerning their shape and its relation with the accuracy of the readings. In an attempt to address this issue, a parametric study was devised to evaluate the performance of different pressure tap designs, 18 in total. These were obtained by combining three shape parameters: sub-channel width (
