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

Multilayer stretchable electronics offer revolutionary potential for next-generation smart wearables, soft robotics and human-machine interfaces, but they face considerable challenges in achieving reliable three-dimensional (3D) interconnections with satisfied stretchability, stability and manufacturing efficiency. Herein, we report additive manufactured (3D printed) multilayer stretchable electronics with unpunched inclined interconnect accesses. Contrary to the widely adopted subtractive manufactured electronics with punched vertical interconnections, the printed interlayer access with inclined geometry effectively mitigates stress concentration and minimizes Poisson effect-induced deformation, thus ensuring stable mechanical and electrical properties. In addition, the 3D printing strategy also significantly promotes the design freedom with rapid manufacturing process. As a result, such 3D printed multilayer electronics illustrate high stretchability (646% strain limit) and excellent stability (over 11000 cycles at 100% strain), surpassing previously reported multilayer stretchable devices. A wireless-powered display system maintains stable performance under large-scale stretching, and a four-layer conformal physiological monitoring system is also demonstrated.
