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
Introduction: Magnetic particle imaging (MPI), a radiation-free, dynamic, and targeted imaging technique, has gained significant traction in both research and clinical settings worldwide. Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is a crucial factor influencing MPI image quality and detection sensitivity, and it is affected by ambient noise, system thermal noise, and the magnetization response of superparamagnetic nanoparticles. Therefore to address the high amplitude system and inherent thermal noise present in conventional MPI systems is essential to improve detection sensitivity and imaging resolution. Method: This study introduces a novel open-loop, narrow-band MPI signal acquisition system based on mixed-frequency harmonic magnetization response. Allowing superparamagnetic nanoparticles to be excited by low frequency, high amplitude magnetic fields and high frequency, low amplitude magnetic fields, the excitation coil generates a mixed excitation magnetic field at a mixed frequency of 8.664 kHz ( Result: The experimental results show that the external noise caused by the excitation coil can be effectively reduced from 12 to about 1.5 μV in the imaging area of 30 mm × 30 mm, which improves the stability of the detection signal of the Gradiometer coil, realizes the detection of high SNR, and makes the detection sensitivity reach 10 μg Fe. By mixing excitation, the total intensity of the excitation field is reduced, resulting in a slight improvement of the resolution under the same gradient field, and the spatial resolution of the image reconstruction is increased from 2 mm under the single frequency excitation (20.7 kHz) in the previous experiment to 1.5 mm under the mixed excitation (8.664 kHz). Conclusions: These experimental results highlight the effectiveness of the proposed open-loop narrowband MPI technique in improving signal detection sensitivity, achieving high signal-to-noise ratio detection and improving the quality of reconstructed images by changing the excitation magnetic field frequency of the excitation coil, providing novel design ideas and technical pathways for future MPI systems.
