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

Running-out detection of the liquids in an infusion bag is important for medical treatment. This paper proposed a simple low-cost sensing scheme with an artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) antenna for liquid-running-out detection in infusion bags. The proposed antenna consists of a dipole antenna supported by an AMC layer. It operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band in the without-liquid state, in the 2.0 GHz ISM band in the with-liquid state, and can be used for liquid sensing. The AMC layer isolates interference from the surrounding environment such as the standing pole. It also enhances antenna performance and improves monitoring sensitivity. This gives a peak gain of 6.45 dBi and a radiation efficiency of 98% in the without-liquid state. Meanwhile, the with-liquid state can achieve a peak gain of 4.5 dBi and a radiation efficiency of 93%. The proposed antenna is fabricated and measured, verifying its sensing performance of the liquid in the infusion bag. This antenna's design is flexible, compact, precise, and suitable for biomedical wireless sensing.
