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

Ultrasonic microfluidic technology is a technique that couples high-frequency ultrasonic excitation to microfluidic chips. To improve the issues of poor disturbance effects with flexible tip structures and the susceptibility of bubbles to thermal deformation, we propose an enhanced ultrasonic microchannel structure that couples flexible tips with bubbles aiming to improve the disturbance effects and the stability duration. Firstly, we used finite element analysis to simulate the flow field distribution characteristics of the flexible tip, the bubble, and the coupling structure and obtained the steady-state distribution characteristics of the velocity field. Next, we fabricated ultrasonic microfluidic chips based on these three structures, employing 2.8 μm polystyrene microspheres as tracers to analyze the disturbance characteristics of the flow field. Additionally, we analyzed the bubble size and growth rate within the adhering bubbles and coupling structures. Finally, we verified the applicability of the coupling structure for biological samples using human red blood cells (RBCs). Experimental results indicated that, compared to the flexible tip and adhering bubble structures, the flow field disturbance range of the coupling structure increased by 439.53% and 133.48%, respectively; the bubble growth rate reduced from 14.4% to 3.3%. The enhanced ultrasonic microfluidic structure proposed in this study shows great potential for widespread applications in micro-scale flow field disturbance and particle manipulation.
