Fluorescent contact lens for continuous non-invasive measurements of sodium and chloride ion concentrations in tears.
Article in Analytical biochemistry, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Rapid and non-invasive measurement of hydration status is medically important because even mild levels of dehydration can have a significant impact on physical and cognitive performance. Despite the potential value of determining whole-body hydration based on the electrolytes found in tears, very few tests are available. An area of intense interest is the development of a contact lens which could measure ion concentrations in tears, specifically that of sodium (Na
