Virtual Quartz Crystal Microbalance: Bioinspired Resonant Frequency Tracking.

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 reference acoustic properties of the quartz crystal used as a resonator are ensured by its high-quality factor (Q-factor). The microbalance of the quartz crystal (QCM) exploits the bulk acoustic properties of the quartz crystal. Turning a network analyzer or impedance analyzer into a QCM with a decent measurement rate is a challenge. The use of a virtual instrument to implement an impedance analyzer (VIA) provides greater flexibility to the virtual QCM. In this paper, VIA's flexibility is exploited for the experimental evaluation of conventional scanning procedures and the influence of associated parameters, in order to identify elements that can lead to a limitation of the performance of a virtual QCM. The results of the experimental investigation justify the use of an innovative and optimized bioinspired scanning procedure to effectively track the serial resonance frequency of the QCM sensor. Variable-resolution spatial sampling of the human retina and the ability of the eye to refocus on the area of interest is the source of bioinspiration for achieving an adaptive virtual QCM. The design methodology and physics are described in detail, and the experimental investigations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed bioinspired scanning procedure.
