Article in Scientific reports, 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
A portable, high-resolution, ground-based synthetic aperture radar is essential for effective environmental monitoring. This paper presents a compact microstrip antenna array with dual bands and dual polarizations. This antenna will be integrated into a radar system to aid disaster mitigation efforts. The proposed antenna array consists of 1 × 4 driven elements for each of the three input/output ports; each driven element is coupled to four parasitic patches for bandwidth enhancement, with two shared parasitic patches between each pair of adjacent driven patches. Two of these ports support vertical polarization and operate in the X-band, achieving a bandwidth of 0.52 GHz. In contrast, the third port supports horizontal polarization and operates in the Ku-band, achieving a bandwidth of 0.67 GHz. The proposed design comprises four stacked layers: the lowest layer is dedicated to the feeding network, followed by a ground layer with rectangular apertures for excitation. On top of the ground layer, a third layer contains the driven patches, and the fourth layer holds the parasitic elements. Using two different substrates, the prospective antenna has a 67.2 mm × 71.1 mm size. The dielectric constant for ground plane layer is 3.48 with height of 0.762 mm while the driven and parasitic patches are on another substrate with dielectric constant of 2.2 for better radiation and height of 1.57 mm. In the X-band, the half-power beamwidth (HPBW) is 80° in the E-plane and 28.5° in the H-plane. In the Ku-band, the HPBW is 35.2° in the elevation plane and 15.6° in the horizontal plane. The antenna acquires gain of 11.17 dBi in the X-band and 14.22 dBi in the Ku-band which is suitable for environmental monitoring system applications.
