Ultrathin and Robust Micro-Nano Composite Coating for Implantable Pressure Sensor Encapsulation.
Article in ACS omega, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Implantable pressure sensors enable more accurate disease diagnosis and real-time monitoring. Their widescale usage is dependent on a reliable encapsulation to protect them from corrosion of body fluids, yet not increasing their sizes or impairing their sensing functions during their lifespans. To realize the above requirements, an ultrathin, flexible, waterproof while robust micro-nano composite coating for encapsulation of an implantable pressure sensor is designed. The composite coating is composed of a nanolayer of silane-coupled molecules and a microlayer of parylene polymers. The mechanism and principle of the composite encapsulation coating with high adhesion are elucidated. Experimental results show that the error of the sensors after encapsulation is less than 2 mmHg, after working continuously for equivalently over 434 days in a simulated body fluid environment. The effects of the coating thickness on the waterproof time and the error of the sensor are also studied. The encapsulated sensor is implanted in an isolated porcine eye and a living rabbit eye, exhibiting excellent performances. Therefore, the micro-nano composite encapsulation coating would have an appealing application in micro-nano-device protections, especially for implantable biomedical devices.
