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 research investigates the potential of a sectoral Cylindrical Dielectric Resonator Antenna (CDRA) for biomedical telemetry. CDRAs are known for their low-loss, ruggedness, and stability, but their limited bandwidth and size make them unsuitable for wearable devices. The research addresses these limitations by proposing a dual-mode antenna that operates in [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] modes. The sectoral CDRA is a quarter segment with Perfect Electric Conductor boundaries, reducing its size by a factor of four. Mathematical derivations of the field components for both modes are derived to support the design. To minimize specific absorption rate (SAR), an Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) surface is applied to the antenna's backside, enhancing compatibility with the transverse electric modes. The antenna achieves a bandwidth of 0.7 GHz (5.2-5.9 GHz), suitable for biomedical applications, with a measured peak gain of 7.9 dBi and a SAR of 1.24 W/kg when applied to a human arm.
