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.

Abstract
High-precision piezoresistive pressure sensors play a significant role in aerospace, automotive, and other fields. Nonlinear error is the key factor that restricts the improvement of the sensor precision. A mathematical model for evaluating the sensor's nonlinear error is established, based on which a piezoresistor sensitivity matching method is proposed to suppress the nonlinear error. By adjusting the piezoresistors' structure and position on the sensing membrane, four piezoresistors with equal sensitivity are obtained, and theoretical quasi-zero nonlinear error is achieved. To verify the design, sensor prototypes are fabricated utilizing the MEMS technology. After sensor packaging, a cylindrical absolute pressure sensor featuring a 4 mm diameter with a range from 0 to 100 kPa is acquired. The experimental results demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed sensor, which indicates a nonlinear error as low as ±0.004%FS. Besides, the proposed sensor has a sensitivity of 1.6810 mV/kPa, a hysteresis of 0.025%, a repeatability of 0.015%, a zero drift of 0.03%FS, and a 3 dB frequency from 0 to 121.82 kHz. Moreover, the prototype is tested in the Mach 4 wind tunnel, and the measurement error between the proposed sensor and the true pressure is ±0.98%. This paper provides key sensing technology for high-precision surface pressure analysis of aircraft.
