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
Due to their lack of pollution and long replacement cycles, piezoelectric energy harvesters have gained increasing attention as emerging power generation devices. However, achieving effective energy harvesting in ultra-low-frequency (<1 Hz) rotational environments remains a challenge. Therefore, a novel rotational energy harvester (REH) with a double-frequency up-conversion mechanism was proposed in this study. It consisted of a hollow cylindrical shell with multiple piezoelectric beams and a ring-shaped slider with multiple paddles. During operation, the relative rotation between the slider and the shell induced the paddles on the slider to strike the piezoelectric beams inside the shell, thereby causing the piezoelectric beams to undergo self-excited oscillation and converting mechanical energy into electrical energy through the piezoelectric effect. Additionally, by adjusting the number of paddles and piezoelectric beams, the frequency of the piezoelectric beam struck by the paddles within one rotation cycle could be increased, further enhancing the output performance of the REH. To validate the output performance of the proposed REH, a prototype was fabricated, and the relationship between the device's output performance and parameters such as the number of paddles, system rotation speed, and device installation eccentricity was studied. The results showed that the designed REH achieved a single piezoelectric beam output power of up to 2.268 mW, while the REH with three piezoelectric beams reached an output power of 5.392 mW, with a high power density of 4.02 μW/(cm
