Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This paper presents the thermal behavior of non-resonant (quasi-static) piezoelectric biaxial MEMS scanners with Bragg reflectors. These scanners were developed for LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) applications using a pulsed 1550 nm laser with an average power of 2 W. At this power, a standard metal (gold) reflector can overheat and be damaged. The Bragg reflector developed here has up to 24 times lower absorption than gold, which limits heating of the mirror. However, the use of such a reflector involves a technological process completely different from that used for gold and induces, for example, different final stresses on the mirror. In view of the high requirements for optical power, the behavior of this reflector in the event of an increase in temperature needs to be studied and compared with the results of previous studies using gold reflectors. This paper shows that the Bragg reflector remains functional as the temperature rises and undergoes no detrimental deformation even when heated to 200 °C. In addition, the 2D-projection model revealed a 5% variation in optical angle at temperatures up to 150 °C and stability of 2D scanning during one hour of continuous use at 150 °C. The results of this study demonstrate that a biaxial piezoelectric MEMS scanner equipped with Bragg reflector technology can reach a maximum temperature of 150 °C, which is of the same order of magnitude as can be reached by scanners with gold reflectors.
