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 increasing demand for continuous, comprehensive physiological information captured by skin-interfaced wireless sensors is hindered by their relatively high-power consumption and the associated patient discomfort that can follow from the use of high capacity batteries. This paper presents an adaptive electronics platform and a tri-modal energy harvesting approach to reduce the need for battery power. Specifically, the schemes focus on sensors that involve light in their operation, through use of (i) photometric methods, where ambient light contributes directly to the measurement process, (ii) multijunction photovoltaic cells, where ambient light powers operation and/or charges an integrated battery, and (iii) photoluminescent packaging, where ambient light activates light-emitting species to enhance the first two schemes. Additional features of interest are in (i) in-sensor computational approaches that decrease the bandwidth and thus the energy consumption in wireless data communication and (ii) radio frequency power transfer for battery charging. These ideas have utility across broad other classes of wearable devices as well as small, portable electronic gadgetry.
