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

Skin-interfacing electrodes are essential for wearable bioelectronics, yet conventional gel- and dry-type electrodes often suffer from dehydration, poor skin conformity, irritation, and delamination during motion, limiting their long-term performance. Here, a self-attachable liquid metal channel (S-LMC) patch is presented that integrates open-bottom Galinstan microchannels and micropillar arrays, both featuring re-entrant geometries for enhances skin adhesion and leakage suppression. A via-hole interconnect enables direct vertical signal transmission, eliminating the need for bulky wiring and facilitating compact integration. The patch achieves strong, reusable skin adhesion (>60 kPa), low contact impedance (7.35 kΩ·cm
