Effect of moisture content on the electromagnetic shielding ability of non-conductive textile structures.

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
Electromagnetically shielding textile materials, especially in professional or ordinary clothing, are used to protect an implanted pacemaker in the body. Alternatively, traditional textiles are known for their non-conductivity and transparency to an electromagnetic field. The main goal of this work was to determine whether the high moisture content (sweat) of the traditional textile structure significantly affects the resulting ability of the material to shield the electromagnetic field. Specifically, whether sufficient wetting of the traditional textile material can increase its electrical conductivity to match the electrically conductive textiles determined for shielding of the electromagnetic field. In this study, cotton and polyester knitted fabric samples were used, and two liquid medias were applied to the samples to simulate human sweating. The experiment was designed to analyse the factors that have a significant effect on the shielding effectiveness that was measured according to ASTM D4935. The following factors have a significant effect on the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of moisturised fabric: squeezing pressure, drying time and type of liquid media. Additionally, the increase of electromagnetic shielding was up to 1 dB at 1.5 GHz frequency at the highest level of artificial sweat moisturised sample.
