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

Due to the rapid growth of electronic information technology, the need for the higher stability of crystal oscillators has increased. The temperature-compensated X'tal (crystal) oscillator (TCXO), a type of crystal oscillator with high frequency stability, has been widely used in communications, sensor networks, automotive electronics, industrial control, measuring devices, and other equipment. The traditional TCXO only performs frequency compensation based on the current temperature, without considering the error caused by thermal hysteresis. As the frequency stability of the TCXO improves, the thermal hysteresis of the crystal oscillator has a negligible influence on the frequency stability of the crystal oscillator. This study measured different compensation tables for hysteresis curves at different temperatures and used a microprocessor to store the historical information of crystal temperature changes. Furthermore, corresponding algorithms were designed to select the correct values, according to the temperature change history, to compensate for the thermal hysteresis of the crystal oscillator error. Experiments show that this method can reduce the hysteresis error of the crystal oscillator from 700 to 150 ppb (-40 to 80 °C).
