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

Wearable acoustic sensors can be used for voice recognition. However, the capabilities of such devices, which are typically based on solid materials, are often restricted by ambient noise, motion artefacts and low conformability to the skin. Here we report a liquid acoustic sensor for voice recognition. The approach is based on a three-dimensional oriented and ramified magnetic network structure of neodymium-iron-boron magnetic nanoparticles suspended in a carrier fluid, which behaves like a permanent magnet. The sensor can discriminate small pressures (0.9 Pa), has a high signal-to-noise ratio (69.1 dB) and provides self-filtering capabilities that can remove low-frequency biomechanical motion artefact (less than 30 Hz). We use the liquid acoustic sensor-together with a machine learning algorithm-to create a wearable voice recognition system that offers a recognition accuracy of 99% in a noisy environment.
