On the Design of an Energy Efficient Digital IIR A-Weighting Filter Using Approximate Multiplication.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 a new A-weighting filter's design and explores the potential of using approximate multiplication for low-power digital A-weighting filter implementation. It presents a thorough analysis of the effects of approximate multiplication, coefficient quantization, the order of first-order sections in the filter's cascade, and zero-pole pairings on the frequency response of the digital A-weighting filter. The proposed A-weighting filter was implemented as a sixth-order IIR filter using approximate odd radix-4 multipliers. The proposed filter was synthesized (Verilog to GDS) using the Nangate45 cell library, and MATLAB simulations were performed to verify the designed filter's magnitude response and performance. Synthesis results indicate that the proposed design achieves nearly 70% reduction in energy (power-delay product) with a negligible deviation of the frequency response from the floating-point implementation. Experiments on acoustic noise suggest that the proposed digital A-weighting filter can be deployed in environmental noise measurement applications without any notable performance degradation.
