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-sensitivity microstrip patch sensor antenna (MPSA) loaded with a meander-line slot (MLS) is proposed for the measurement of relative permittivity. The proposed MPSA was designed by etching the MLS along the radiating edge of the patch antenna, and it enhanced the relative permittivity sensitivity with an additional effect of miniaturization in the patch size by increasing the slot length. The sensitivity of the proposed MPSA was compared with that of a conventional rectangular patch antenna and a rectangular slit (RS)-loaded MPSA, by measuring the shift in the resonant frequency of the input reflection coefficient. Three MPSAs were designed and fabricated on a 0.76 mm-thick RF-35 substrate to resonate at 2.5 GHz under unloaded conditions. Sensitivity comparison was performed by using five different standard dielectric samples with dielectric constants ranging from 2.17 to 10.2. The experiment results showed that the sensitivity of the proposed MPSA is 6.84 times higher for a low relative permittivity of 2.17, and 4.57 times higher for a high relative permittivity of 10.2, when compared with the conventional MPSA. In addition, the extracted relative permittivity values of the five materials under tests showed good agreement with the reference data.
