Microwave power penetration enhancement inside an inhomogeneous human head.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 penetration of microwave power inside a human head model is improved by employing a dielectric loaded rectangular waveguide as the transmission source. A multi-layer reflection model is investigated to evaluate the combined material characteristics of different lossy human head tissues at 2.45 GHz. A waveguide loaded with a calculated permittivity of 3.62 is shown to maximise the microwave power penetration at the desired frequency. A Quartz (SiO
