Assessment of a Clothing Ensemble with an Active Heating Function Based on Thermal Manikin Tests.
Article in Materials (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
Heated clothing is an alternative to passive thermally insulating clothing used so far, made of thick, multi-layered fabric compounds. In this work, a personalized two-layer heated clothing ensemble for mountain rescuers was developed. It consisted of an electrically heated inner suit and an outer suit made of waterproof laminate. Total thermal insulation and local thermal insulations were determined using a thermal manikin. The heating system's performance was assessed by comparing these results with those obtained with the heating turned off in the same ensemble, as well as with a down jacket added. It was confirmed that a thick thermally insulating layer (down jacket) can be eliminated through the application of electric heating. Heating improved the resultant effective thermal insulation of the clothing ensemble by 52% at a total power of 28.4 W. This exceeded the value obtained with the additional down jacket and no heating by 4%.
