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

LoRaWAN is a Low-PowerWide Area Network (LPWAN) technology designed for Internetof Things (IoT) deployments; this paper presents experiences from deploying a city-scale network across Southampton, UK. This network was deployed to support an installation of air quality monitors and to explore the capabilities of . This deployment uses a mixture of commercial off-the-shelf gateways and custom gateways. These gateway locations were chosen based on network access, site permission and accessibility, and are not necessarily the best locations theoretically. Over 135,000 messages have been transmitted by the twenty devices analysed. Over the course of the complete deployment, 72 . 4 of the messages were successfully received by the data server. Of the messages that were received, 99 were received within 10 s of transmission. We conclude that is an applicable communication technology for city-scale air quality monitoring and other smart city applications.
