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
Wearable sensors for continuous physiological monitoring during intense exercise face significant challenges, including motion artifacts and skin discomfort. Conductive hydrogels offer a promising solution due to their skin-like flexibility and excellent electrical conductivity, yet their application in extreme conditions like marathon running remains challenges. Here, we develop a MXene-based dual-network hydrogel composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and tempo-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCNF) crosslinked with MXene nanosheets and borax. This hydrogel exhibits exceptional environmental stability (35 days at 4 °C and 30% relative humidity) and strain sensitivity (gauge factor of 7.79 at 800% strain), while MXene integration provides outstanding antibacterial properties (>99% inhibition). As a proof of concept, under simulated marathon conditions (38°C, 52% relative humidity), the sensor maintains stable performance for 6 h, demonstrating reliable heart rate and respiration monitoring. These capabilities are crucial for identifying early signs of cardiorespiratory abnormalities during endurance sports. Our work presents a robust strategy for developing wearable hydrogel sensors with long-term reliability in extreme environments, offering significant potential for sports medicine, exercise physiology, and continuous health monitoring applications.
