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

To increase the number of estimable signal sources, two-parallel nested arrays are proposed, which consist of two subarrays with sensors, and can estimate the two-dimensional (2-D) direction of arrival (DOA) of signal sources. To solve the problem of direction finding with two-parallel nested arrays, a 2-D DOA estimation algorithm based on sparse Bayesian estimation is proposed. Through a vectorization matrix, smoothing reconstruction matrix and singular value decomposition (SVD), the algorithm reduces the size of the sparse dictionary and data noise. A sparse Bayesian learning algorithm is used to estimate one dimension angle. By a joint covariance matrix, another dimension angle is estimated, and the estimated angles from two dimensions can be automatically paired. The simulation results show that the number of DOA signals that can be estimated by the proposed two-parallel nested arrays is much larger than the number of sensors. The proposed two-dimensional DOA estimation algorithm has excellent estimation performance.
