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 proposes a temperature sensor based on temperature-frequency conversion using 180 nm CMOS technology. The temperature sensor consists of a proportional-to-absolute temperature (PTAT) current generating circuit, a relaxation oscillator with oscillation frequency proportional to temperature (OSC-PTAT), a relaxation oscillator with oscillation frequency independent of temperature (OSC-CON), and a divider circuit cascaded with D flip-flops. Using BJT as the temperature sensing module, the sensor has the advantages of high accuracy and high resolution. An oscillator that uses PTAT current to charge and discharge capacitors to achieve oscillation, and utilizes voltage average feedback (VAF) to enhance the frequency stability of the oscillator is tested. Through the dual temperature sensing process with the same structure, the influence of variables such as power supply voltage, device, and process deviation can be reduced to a certain extent. The temperature sensor in this paper was implemented and tested with a temperature measurement range of 0-100 °C, an inaccuracy of +0.65 °C/-0.49 °C after two-point calibration, a resolution of 0.003 °C, a resolution Figure of Merit (FOM) of 6.7 pJ/K
