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 presents a silicon-dioxide-coated capacitive electrode system for an ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG). The electrode was coated with a nano-leveled (287 nm) silicon dioxide layer which has a very high resistance of over 200 MΩ. Due to this high resistance, the electrode can be defined as only a capacitor without a resistive characteristic. This distinct capacitive characteristic of the electrode brings a simplified circuit analysis to achieve the development of a high-quality ambulatory ECG system. The 240 um thickness electrode was composed of a stainless-steel sheet layer for sensing, a polyimide electrical insulation layer, and a copper sheet connected with the ground to block any electrical noises generated from the back side of the structure. Six different diameter electrodes were prepared to optimize ECG signals in ambulatory environment, such as the amplitude of the QRS complex, amplitude of electromagnetic interference (EMI), and baseline wandering of the ECG signals. By combining the experimental results, optimal ambulatory ECG signals were obtained with electrodes that have a diameter from 1 to 3 cm. Moreover, we achieved high-quality ECG signals in a sweating simulation environment with 2 cm electrodes.
