A review of wearable biosensors for sweat analysis.
Review in Biomedical engineering letters, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
Recent advances in the skin-interfaced wearable sweat sensors allow a personalized daily diagnosis and prognosis of the diseases in a form of a non-invasive, portable, and continuous monitoring system. Especially, the soft microfluidic system provides robust quantitative analysis platforms that integrate sweat sampling, storing, and various sensing capabilities. This review systematically introduces the sweat collecting mechanism using soft microfluidic valves, including calculation of sweat storage and loss. In terms of sweat analysis, colorimetric (e.g. enzymatic, chemical, or their mixed reactions), electrochemical (e.g. voltammetric, potentiometric, amperometric, or conductometric), and multiplex measurements of sweat contents facilitate diagnosis of diseases via analysis of combined multiple data, such as vital signals (e.g. ECG, EMG, EEG, etc.) and information from the skin (e.g. temperature, GSR, etc.). The integration of wireless communication with the microfluidic systems enables point-of-care health monitoring for disease and specific physiological status.
