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
A frequency up-conversion piezoelectric energy harvester (FUC-PEH) consists of a force amplifier, a piezoelectric stack, a low-frequency oscillator (LFO), and a stop limiter. The force amplifier generates the amplification of stress on the piezoelectric stack. The LFO, comprising a spring and a mass block, impacts the stop limiter during vibration to induce high-frequency oscillations within the piezoelectric stack. In this paper, we represent and simplify the FUC-PEH as a lumped-parameter model based on piezoelectric material constitutive equations and structural dynamic theories. Using the electromechanical analogy, we developed an equivalent circuit model (ECM) of the FUC-PEH. A parametric study was performed to investigate the impact of system parameters, such as spring stiffness and concentrated mass, on the FUC-PEH performance. The collision-induced amplitude truncation (AT) effect enlarges the operation bandwidth. ECM simulations show that low-frequency input excitation is converted into a high-frequency output response, enhancing the energy conversion efficiency. Furthermore, we aimed to improve the FUC-PEH's performance using a synchronous electric charge extraction (SECE) circuit. Using the ECM approach, we established a system-level model that considers the electromechanical coupling behavior. The simulation results provide insights into the performance of FUC harvesters with SECE circuits and offer valuable design guidance.
