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

This research work reports an approach for the fabrication of liquid metal patterned thin films. By using this method, very complex liquid metal electrodes can be successfully integrated into a thin PDMS film with a thickness as low as 119 μm. The high resolution of the microelectrode channel is achieved by soft lithography technology. The relatively-thin electrode structure is developed with the assistance of the reversible PC membrane bonding technique that we reported earlier. Femtosecond laser drilling is applied in this work to drill small holes at the channel ends, allowing the air to escape during the filling of liquid metal and making the blind-end liquid metal electrode structure possible. In this work, the fabrication process with some key procedures involved is introduced for developing a microelectrode. Further, a wearable strain sensor is designed with the fabricated microelectrode to show its potential to be used in flexible electronics.
