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

Wearable pressure sensors have emerged as vital tools in personalized monitoring, promising transformative advances in patient care and diagnostics. Nevertheless, conventional devices frequently suffer from limited sensitivity, inadequate flexibility, and concerns regarding biocompatibility. Herein, we introduce silk fibroin, a naturally occurring protein extracted from silkworm cocoons, as a promising material platform for next-generation wearable sensors. Owing to its remarkable biocompatibility, mechanical robustness, and structural tunability, silk fibroin serves as an ideal substrate for constructing capacitive pressure sensors tailored to medical applications. We engineered silk-derived capacitive architecture and evaluated its performance in real-time human motion and physiological signal detection. The resulting sensor exhibits a high sensitivity of 18.68 kPa
