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 design and characterisation of a novel dual-band implantable antenna with compact size is presented in this research. The antenna, which is [Formula: see text] in size and operates at two critical frequencies-0.954 GHz in the UHF band and 2.4 GHz in the ISM band-was fabricated on an RT6010 substrate. The U-shaped slot and shorting pin on the radiating element have been exploited to achieved dual-band and circular polarization. The antenna is noteworthy for achieving circular polarization with a broad axial ratio bandwidth of 24.6%, which enables strong performance throughout its operating frequencies. The proposed antennas SAR values satisfy IEEE safety standards for implantable medical devices with a gain of - 28.1 dB at 2.4 GHz and - 31.2 dB at 0.954 GHz, despite its small size. The design represents a significant advancement in the field of medical implant technology since it prioritizes effective wireless communication capabilities while upholding strict safety regulations.
