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
This study focuses on the optimal design of an Auxetic Re-entrant Honeycomb (ARH) metamaterial structure aimed at enhancing energy harvesting (ES) performance in doubly-curved sandwich shells (DCSS). To accomplish this, the geometric parameters of the ARH are optimized using a Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) and considering geometric and physical constraints. Initially, the study provides an accurate calculation for the density of the ARH layer and compares it with previous models. Then, the governing electromechanical coupled equations are derived using Modified First-Order Shear Deformation Theory (MFSDT) and Hamilton's principle, assuming simple support boundary conditions at all four edges. Utilizing Galerkin's principle, the frequency response function (FRF) of the specific output power is analyzed. In addition to evaluating the free vibration results against authoritative references, the finite element simulation is also used to validate both the eigenfrequencies and FRFs data derived from the analytical solution. The optimization algorithm aims to maximize the specific power output while minimizing the resonant frequency of the structure. The results from optimizing the ARH core layer demonstrate that the new designs achieve ES capabilities that are 42.96 times greater than those with an isotropic core and 6.92 times greater than those of the conventional ARH. Additionally, the optimized structures show improved stiffness metrics compared to their pre-optimization counterparts. Thus, this design successfully enhances both ES and structural behavior, particularly in terms of stiffness.
