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

The advancement of wearable devices and soft robots requires soft and stretchable sensors to detect their movements. This article proposes palm oil as an organic solvent for a stretchable piezoresistive strain sensor made from a composite consisting of elastomer (Ecoflex 00-30) filled with carbon black. The high content of palmitic acid in the palm oil increases the dispersity of carbon black in the composite, hence effectively improving the conductivity of the sensors. Furthermore, using palm oil as a natural plasticizer can lower the degree of crosslinking of the matrix, reducing the modulus elasticity but still producing a stretchable sensor with 500 % elongation at break. The presence of palm oil in the sensor also increases the gauge factor, showing a value of 2.43-4.75 and better repeatability during loading. These gauge factors are associated with two linear strain regions of the sensors (R
