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 paper aims to contribute to the analysis of a heat sink designed for the active cooling of small flat surfaces. The heat transfer device investigated here consists of a flat square substrate and a cover, separated by parallel channels with a rectangular cross-section. The cold air flowing in the channels is sucked from the environment, and the bottom of the substrate adheres closely to the hot surface of the device to be cooled. The thermal problem is tackled by considering two different conditions: the first one assuming one long side of the channel is heated and the three other sides are adiabatic (version 1L) and the second one assuming high conductivity of the walls (version 4), in both the H1 and H2 boundary conditions. Moreover, to investigate the effect of the number of channels on the performance of the heat sink, the number of channels is changed between 1 and 20. The results, presented in terms of the
