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 review presents an in-depth examination of implantable antennas for various biomedical purposes. The development of implantable antennas, including their designs, materials, and operating principles, are introduced at the beginning of the discussion. An overview of the many kinds of implantable antennas utilized in implantable medical devices (IMDs) are presented in this study. The article then discusses the important factors to consider when developing implantable antennas for biomedical purposes, including implant placement, frequency range, and power needs. This investigation additionally examines the challenges and limitations encountered with implantable antennas, including the limited space available within the human body, the requirement for biocompatible materials, the impact of surrounding tissue on antenna performance, tissue attenuation, and signal interference. This review also emphasizes the most recent advances in implanted antenna technology, such as wireless power transmission, multiband operation, and miniaturization. Furthermore, it offers illustrations of several biomedical uses for implantable antennas, including pacemaker, capsule endoscopy, intracranial pressure monitoring, retinal prostheses, and bone implants. This paper concludes with a discussion of the future of implantable antennas and their possible use in bioelectronic medicine and novel medical implants. Overall, this survey offers a thorough analysis of implantable antennas in biomedical applications, emphasizing their importance in the development of implantable medical technology.
