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

Replicating brain-like computation with fluidic memristors offers advantages in energy efficiency and chemical responsiveness over solid-state devices, yet scaling remains challenging due to complex fabrication and their amorphous nature. Herein, we developed a confined hydrogel fluidic memristor by forming a gel-gel interface at the micropore orifice. This design with confined hydrogel enables scalable fabrication of a 10×10 fluidic memristor array (FMA) on polyimide micropores. FMA exhibits fundamental neuromorphic behaviors like paired-pulse facilitation/depression, spike-rate-dependent plasticity, and chemical-regulated plasticity. We also used reservoir computing algorithms with FMA to recognize both computer-generated black-and-white digit images and handwritten digits, achieving a classification accuracy of 89.5% on the Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology dataset. This study demonstrates a hydrogel confined fluidic memristor array, paving an avenue for creating large-scale fluidic memristor arrays and hardware intelligence with ions.
