An Ultra-Flexible Neural Electrode with Bioelectromechanical Compatibility and Brain Micromotion Detection.
Article in Advanced healthcare materials, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Neural electrodes, as core components of brain-computer interfaces(BCIs), face critical challenges in achieving stable mechanical coupling with brain tissue to ensure high-quality signal acquisition. Current flexible electrodes, including semi-invasive meningeal-attached types and implantable cantilever designs, exhibit significant mechanical mismatches (elastic modulus 5-6 orders higher than brain tissue) due to material/structural limitations, leading to interfacial slippage. While thread-like implants (e.g., Neuralink's electrodes) improve compliance via elongated structures, quantitative characterization of mechano-bioelectric interactions remains unexplored. This study proposes a bioelectromechanical coupling strategy, emphasizing synchronized motion between the electrode and the brain tissue through exposed-end deformation. A 4-channel ultra-flexible electrode (40 mm in length, 164 µm in width, and 3 µm in thickness) is optimized using finite-element simulations and zero relative-motion criteria, achieving an equivalent stiffness of 0.023 N m
