Numerical Analysis of Microfluidic Motors Actuated by Reconfigurable Induced-Charge Electro-Osmotic Whirling Flow.
Article in Micromachines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The detection of proteins plays a key role in disease diagnosis and drug development. For this, we numerically investigated a novel microfluidic motor actuated by an induced-charge electro-osmotic (ICEO) whirling flow. An alternating current-flow field effect transistor is engineered to modulate the profiles of ICEO streaming to stimulate and adjust the whirling flow in the circle microfluidic chamber. Based on this, we studied the distribution of an ICEO whirling flow in the detection chamber by tuning the fixed potential on the gate electrodes by the simulations. Then, we established a fluid-structure interaction model to explore the influence of blade structure parameters on the rotation performance of microfluidic motors. In addition, we investigated the rotation dependence of microfluidic motors on the potential drop between two driving electrodes and fixed potential on the gate electrodes. Next, we numerically explored the capability of these microfluidic motors for the detection of low-abundance proteins. Finally, we studied the regulating effect of potential drops between the driving electrodes on the detection performance of microfluidic motors by numerical simulations. Microfluidic motors actuated by an ICEO whirling flow hold good potential in environmental monitoring and disease diagnosis for the outstanding advantages of flexible controllability, a simple structure, and gentle work condition.
