Hall effect FEM modeling using FreeFEM++: Illustration on a cross-shaped graphene sensor.
Article in PloS one, 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
The Hall effect, which occurs in metals and semiconductors, is used in numerous applications, particularly in the fabrication of magnetic field sensors. This phenomenon is influenced by the physical properties of the material (electron mobility, doping), the geometry of the device, and the size and position of the metallic contacts. The analytical model has limitations in accurately capturing all these phenomena. Therefore, in this work, we propose a finite element model using FreeFEM++ to accurately model the Hall effect. The validity of this model is assessed by comparing it to analytical ones. The effect of physical defects on the electrical measurements, which cannot be analytically calculated, is explored to illustrate the usefulness of this model under realistic conditions. These simulations can be used both as teaching tools, to illustrate this physical effect and as research tools, as demonstrated in the case of a graphene-based transistor. The reported simulation script is openly shared.
