1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

A novel wearable button antenna sensor is proposed for the concept of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). This integrates two working modes for the transfer of power and information, respectively, and optimizes transfer efficiency. An omni-directional radiation pattern is achieved in the 3.5 GHz World Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) band to support on-body wireless communications, while a circularly polarized broadside radiation pattern is obtained in the 5 GHz wireless local area networks (WLAN) band to harvest power. The measured -10 dB return loss bandwidths are 4.0% (3.47-3.61 GHz) in the lower band, and 25.0% (4.51-5.80 GHz) in the higher band, respectively. An artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) structure with wideband characteristics is applied to obtain a low-profile design and to increase the stability of the antenna sensor. A high radiation efficiency of over 80% in the whole working band is observed. The specific absorption rate (SAR) of the proposed antenna sensor is below 0.509 W/kg at 3.55 GHz, and below 0.0532 W/kg at 5.5 GHz, respectively, which is much lower than the European standard threshold of 2 W/kg. All these characteristics make the designed antenna sensor suitable for on-body information transmission and off-body energy harvesting. The antenna sensor has been prototyped. Simulations and measurements agree well, proving the validity of the new concept.
