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
In this study, an electrostatically driven vertical MEMS actuator was designed using a hollow square electrode. To attain vertical actuation, a hollow square-shaped electrode was designed on the glass substrate. The silicon proof mass, containing a step, was utilized to realize analogue actuation without pull-in. The vertical MEMS actuator was fabricated using the SiOG (Silicon on Glass) process and the total actuator size was 8.3 mm × 8.3 mm. The fabricated proof mass was freestanding due to eight serpentine springs with 30 μm width. The vertical movement of the MEMS actuator was successfully controlled electrostatically. The measured vertical movement was 5.6 µm for a voltage of 40 V, applied between the top silicon structure and the hollow square electrode. The results shown here confirm that the proposed MEMS actuator was able to control the vertical displacement using an applied voltage.
