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 paper analyzes how distortion in the primary current waveform affects the magnetic flux density in the magnetic core of an inductive current transformer and its transformation accuracy. Keeping the primary current's RMS value constant, it studies the impact of changes in the RMS values and phase angles of low-order harmonics on the core's flux density and the values of current error and phase displacement of their transformation. The distorted current waveforms, resulting flux density, and hysteresis loops are examined to identify the operating conditions of the inductive current transformer. This study also highlights the strong influence of low-order harmonics and the diminishing effect of higher-frequency harmonics on the magnetic flux density in its magnetic core, e.g., third, fifth, and seventh higher harmonics may cause an increase in magnetic flux density in the magnetic core of the inductive current transformer in relation to that obtained for a sinusoidal current with a frequency of 50 Hz by about 8.5%, while with additional second, fourth, and sixth harmonics, the increase may reach about 23%. Therefore, the testing procedure should consider not only the load impedance and the RMS values of the primary current but also its harmonic content, including the RMS values of individual harmonics and their phase angles.
