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

This study proposes an electrical impedance tomography (EIT) device based on a programmable system on a chip (PSoc). The EIT-PSoC system is implemented using two PSoC 5LP platforms. A resistive phantom is used to study frame frequency (fps), accuracy (Ac), and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). A saline phantom, along with both conductive and non-conductive objects, is employed to evaluate the system's ability to detect changes in impedance distribution. Finally, the dielectric characteristics of the human lower pelvis is emulated using four agar phantoms, allowing an evaluation of the EIT-PSoC system's performance in response to changes in fluid volume and conductivity. Experiments conducted on the resistive phantom to characterize the EIT-PSoC system demonstrate a frame frequency of 100 fps, a median SNR of 63.59 dB, and an accuracy of 95.39% when using a 0.98 mA sinusoidal current signal at 50 kHz. EIT image reconstruction shows that the proposed system can distinguish impedance changes in the saline phantom. Additionally, by utilizing the global impedance (GI) index and the agar phantoms, the EIT-PSoC system can detect changes in volume and conductivity, making this system a promising alternative for monitoring the volume and conductivity of biological fluids.
