Low Temperature Adhesive Bonding-Based Fabrication of an Air-Borne Flexible Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
This paper presents the development of a flexible piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducer (PMUT) that can conform to flat, concave, and convex surfaces and work in air. The PMUT consists of an Ag-coated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film mounted onto a laser-manipulated polymer substrate. A low temperature (<100 °C) adhesive bonding technique is adopted in the fabrication process. Finite element analysis (FEA) is implemented to confirm the capability of predicting the resonant frequency of composite diaphragms and optimizing the device. The manufactured PMUT exhibits a center frequency of 198 kHz with a wide operational bandwidth. Its acoustic performance is demonstrated by transmitting and receiving ultrasound in air on curved surface. The conclusions from this study indicate the proposed PMUT has great potential in ultrasonic and wearable devices applications.
