Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 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 increasing power demand in substations and the advancement of smart-grid technology point to optical voltage sensors (OVSs) based on the Pockels effect as an attractive solution to replace traditional coil instrument transformers, due to their advantageous characteristics of lower cost and installation space, absence of explosion risks, as well as nonlinear effects such as magnetic hysteresis. Regarding the measurement, our OVS presents excellent linearity, 3 kHz bandwidth, and high input impedance. The primary contribution of this paper is to demonstrate, for the first time, the efficiency of a versatile nonlinear digital controller, based on sliding mode theory, for the optical phase demodulation of an OVS. A simple proportional-integral feedback control is employed to prevent signal fading and generate the two quadrature signals required by the observer, which includes the nonlinear digital controller. Experimental results, for 60 Hz sinusoidal voltages with amplitudes exceeding the half-wave voltage of the OVS, prove that peak-to-peak relative errors remain below 0.8%, while total harmonic distortion (THD) relative errors are under 1.5% when compared to a commercial high-voltage probe used as a reference. These results confirm compliance with Class 1.0 of the UNE-EN 60044-7 standard and show strong potential for applications in power quality measurements.
