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

The mainstream Rotating Cell Culture System (RCCS) simulates microgravity via three-dimensional dynamic rotation, which differs from true space microgravity in physical mechanisms. In this context, the present investigation innovatively proposes a new microgravity simulation strategy based on Einstein's equivalence principle-establish a stable and controllable quasi-free-fall flow field environment by constructing a gas-liquid coupled oscillatory system inside the U-tube. Based on the analysis of the physical modeling of the oscillating flow field in the vertical U-tube and the CFD-VOF gas-liquid coupling simulation experiments with parameters (D = 15 mm, R/D = 1.3) shown that in each oscillation period, 71% of the liquid will lose weight in two vertical sections, and when the liquid at the maximum volume ratio the average weight loss peak value is 0.02 g, achieving spatial low microgravity (10
