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

Zero-heat-flux (ZHF) thermometry is a clinically validated method for non-invasive core body temperature monitoring, yet its broad adoption in wearable applications is constrained by the high power consumption of the heater element. In this study, we numerically investigate the role of microporous insulation in minimizing energy demand while preserving measurement accuracy. A three-dimensional finite element model of a ZHF probe was implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics 5.4, consisting of a resistive heater, a microporous insulation shell, and a skin-equivalent substrate regulated by proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control. A Taguchi L9 orthogonal array was utilized to systematically investigate the effects of porosity (0-90%), insulation thickness (2-4 mm), and the convective heat transfer coefficient (5-15 W/m
