Mixing enhancement in T-junction microchannel with acoustic streaming induced by triangular structure.
Article in Biomicrofluidics, 2021. 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
The T-shaped microchannel system is used to mix similar or different fluids, and the laminar flow nature makes the mixing at the entrance junction region a challenging task. Acoustic streaming is a steady vortical flow phenomenon that can be produced in the microchannel by oscillating acoustic transducer around the sharp edge tip structure. In this study, the acoustic streaming is produced using a triangular structure with tip angles of 22.62°, 33.4°, and 61.91°, which is placed at the entrance junction region and mixes the inlets flow from two directions. The acoustic streaming flow patterns were investigated using micro-particle image velocimetry (
