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

Touchscreens are a fundamental technology for human society providing the primary gateway for human-machine interaction. Today's touchscreens can only be used to detect touch and provide the location of the user's touch input but not to simultaneously communicate digital data during a touch event through the touchscreen. If communication through a touchscreen can be enabled, it promises deep societal impact by augmenting the most popular Human-Computer-Interaction interface with new possibilities such as a single application on the same device opening up personalized user-specific account data depending on the person interacting with the application. Leveraging advances in Electro-Quasistatic field based communication in the past decade, we propose and demonstrate Touchscreen Communication (ToSCom), a high-speed (>Mbps) simultaneous communication and touch sensing interface. We develop a low path loss channel across the entire touchscreen surface enabling 3 Mbps data rate communication with an average bit-error-rate of less than 5 × 10
