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.
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
This paper presents a novel, low-cost, portable impedance analyzer system designed for biopotential electrode evaluation and skin/electrode impedance measurement, critical for enhancing bioelectrical signal quality in healthcare applications. In contrast with conventional systems that depend on external PCs or host devices for data acquisition, visualization, and analysis, this design integrates all functionalities into a single, compact platform powered by the Analog Devices AD5933 impedance converter and a Raspberry Pi 4. The design incorporates custom analog circuitry to extend the measurement range from 10 Hz to 100 kHz and supports a wide impedance spectrum through switchable feedback resistors. Validated against a benchtop impedance analyzer, the system demonstrates high accuracy with normalized root-mean-square errors (NRMSEs) of 1.41% and 3.77% for the impedance magnitude and phase of passive components, respectively, and 1.43% and 1.29% for the biopotential electrode evaluation and skin/electrode impedance measurement. This cost-effective solution, with a total cost of USD 159, addresses the accessibility challenges faced by smaller research labs and healthcare facilities, offering a compact, low-power platform for reliable impedance analysis in biomedical applications.
