A Comparative Analysis of Lead-Free Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers for Powered Bio-Sensing.
Article in Micromachines, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
To exploit ultra-low power logic and architectural design techniques for bio-sensors in the human body, wireless ultrasonic techniques have emerged as a strong candidate for intra-body power transmission, thanks to lower medium attenuation and higher permitted safe intensity levels. When sub-100 μm dimensions are considered for the bio-sensor, most devices struggle to guarantee a suitable voltage and power for digital electronics due to additional scaling requirements. This study investigates three alternative piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers in aluminum nitride doped with scandium, as reported in the literature, operating in the range 1-10 MHz. Their respective advantages and limitations with regard to energy harvesting and signal transmission performance are analyzed. It is shown that devices with footprints of less than 100 × 100 μm
