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

Bio-optoelectronics necessitate stable and transparent conductors for precise and consistent output of electrical signals. However, diverse aqueous environments challenge the long-term stable operation. In this study, we show a solution-processed transparent conductive nanomembrane that can be directly deposited on human skin and organic substrates, exhibiting good stability in multiple aqueous environments including rainwater, seawater, and biological fluids. This is attributed to the stabilizing of the polymer phase, which improves the stability and biocompatibility of the metal nanowires phase. The strategy ensures reliable electrical performance even in humid or wet environments for bio-signals like electromyography and electrocorticography. Its intrinsic transparency also enables subcutaneous vascular imaging and cerebral neurovascular imaging. This nanomembrane successfully expands the application of skin electronics settings underwater and enables continuous implantable monitoring of the cerebral cortex.
