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

In pursuit of high-performance flexible strain sensors, achieving an optimal trade-off among linearity, sensitivity, and strain sensing range remains a critical challenge. Inspired by the wrinkled-leaf viburnum, we develop a Janus sensor that replicates its asymmetric structure. It comprises a dense, micro-wrinkled natural rubber (NR)/graphene (GRs) top layer and a loose NR/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) bottom layer, fabricated via facile layer-by-layer filtration and pre-stretching strategy. This bio-inspired design enables the sensor with a synergistic sensing mechanism: wrinkle-guided microcrack ensures highly sensitive linear response at low strains; strain-phase division maintains signal continuity at medium strains; and parallel conductive circuits provide robustness at high strains. As a result, the sensor achieves an exceptional combination of ultra-high linearity (R
