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

A high quality factor, denoted as the Q-factor, is crucial for micromachined disk resonator gyroscopes, commonly referred to as DRGs, to suppress thermomechanical noise and improve bias stability. However, the coupled energy dissipation mechanisms under low-pressure conditions impose significant limitations on further Q-factor enhancement. This paper establishes a rigorous multiphysics damping analysis framework for DRGs and quantitatively investigates the contributions of air damping, thermoelastic damping, and anchor loss. A free-molecular squeeze-film damping model is derived based on kinetic gas theory and molecular energy transfer mechanisms, avoiding the continuous fluid assumption of the classical Reynolds equation, which fails in low-pressure regimes. Due to the highly symmetric ring structure and central anchor design, finite element method simulations reveal an extremely high anchor-loss-limited quality factor, Q_anchor, of approximately 1.85 × 10
