Mixing Performance of a Planar Asymmetric Contraction-and-Expansion Micromixer.
Article in Micromachines, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Micromixers are one of the critical components in microfluidic devices. They significantly affect the efficiency and sensitivity of microfluidics-based lab-on-a-chip systems. This study introduces an efficient micromixer with a simple geometrical feature that enables easy incorporation in a microchannel network without compromising the original design of microfluidic devices. The study proposes a newly designed planar passive micromixer, termed a planar asymmetric contraction-and-expansion (P-ACE) micromixer, with asymmetric vertical obstacle structures. Numerical simulation and experimental investigation revealed that the optimally designed P-ACE micromixer exhibited a high mixing efficiency of 80% or more within a microchannel length of 10 mm over a wide range of Reynolds numbers (0.13 ≤
