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
Commercially available biomedical wearable sensors to measure tensile force/strain still struggle with miniaturization in terms of weight, size, and conformability. Flexible and epidermal electronic devices have been utilized in these applications to overcome these issues. However, current sensors still require a power supply and some form of powered data transfer, which present challenges to miniaturization and to applications. Here, we report on the development of flexible, passive (thus zero power consumption), and biocompatible nanostructured photonic devices that can measure tensile strain in real time by providing an optical readout instead of an electronic readout. Hierarchical silver (Ag) nanostructures in various thicknesses of 20-60 nm were fabricated and embedded on a stretchable substrate using e-beam lithography and a low-temperature dewetting process. The hierarchical Ag nanostructures offer more design flexibility through a two-level design approach. A tensional force applied in one lateral (
