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

An amplitude demodulator with a large dynamic range, based on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), is proposed in this paper. It is implemented as a cascade of a capacitive and a thermoelectric sensor. Two types of the transducer can improve the measurement range and enhance the overload capacity. This MEMS-based demodulation is realized by utilizing the square law relationship and the low-pass characteristic during the electromechanical and thermoelectric conversion. The fabrication of this device is compatible with the GaAs monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) process. Experiments show that this MEMS demodulator can realize the direct demodulation of an amplitude modulation (AM) signal with a carrier frequency of 0.35-10 GHz, and cover the power range from 0 to 23 dBm. This MEMS demodulator has the advantages of high power handling capability and zero DC power consumption.
