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

With the widespread adoption of the Internet of Things and wearable technology, flexible tactile sensors-serving as core components for detecting external mechanical signals-have become a key supporting technology across numerous fields. Piezoresistive flexible tactile sensors offer advantages such as simple structure, high sensitivity, and ease of integration. Paper-based sensing materials sensitized with nanomaterials are simple to prepare and low-cost, making them suitable candidates for tactile sensor fabrication. However, paper-based tactile sensors typically cannot simultaneously achieve a wide detection range and high sensitivity. This paper presents an engineered microstructure-sensitized flexible tactile sensor based on toilet paper/silver nanowires (AgNWs). This study integrates the structural advantages of engineered polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microstructures with the synergistic effects of toilet paper/silver nanowires (AgNWs) to construct a high-performance flexible sensing system. The device exhibits a wide pressure detection range (6.85-273.96 kPa), high sensitivity (39,570 kPa
