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

In this paper, the elastic wave propagation method was used in damage detection in thin structures. The effectiveness and accuracy of the system based on the wave propagation phenomenon depend on the number and localization of the sensors. The utilization of the piezoelectric (PZT) transducers makes possible to build a low-cost damage detection system that can be used in structural health monitoring (SHM) of the metallic and composite structures. The different number and localization of transducers were considered in the numerical and experimental analysis of the wave propagation phenomenon. The relation of the sensors configuration and the damage detection capability was demonstrated. The main assumptions and requirements of SHM systems of different levels were discussed with reference to the damage detection expectations. The importance of the damage detection system constituents (sensors number, localization, or damage index) in different levels of analysis was verified and discussed to emphasize that in many practical applications introducing complicated procedures and sophisticated data processing techniques does not lead to improving the damage detection efficiency. Finally, the necessity of the appropriate formulation of SHM system requirements and expectations was underlined to improve the effectiveness of the detection methods in particular levels of analysis and thus to improve the safety of the monitored structures.
