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 study introduces a tunable acoustic tweezer system designed for precise three-dimensional particle trapping and manipulation. The system utilizes a dual-liquid-layer acoustic lens, which enables the dynamic control of the focal length through the adjustable curvature of a latex membrane. This tunability is essential for generating the acoustic forces necessary for effective manipulation of particles, particularly along the direction of acoustic wave propagation (z-axis). Experiments conducted with spherical particles as small as 1.5 mm in diameter demonstrated the system's capability for stable trapping and manipulation. Performance was rigorously evaluated through both z-axis and 3D manipulation tests. In the
