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

Characterizing the surface deformation during the inter-survey period could assist in understanding rock mass progressive failure processes. Moreover, 3D reconstruction of rock mass surface is a crucial step in surface deformation detection. This study presents a method to reconstruct the rock mass surface at close range in a fast way using the improved structure from motion-multi view stereo (SfM) algorithm for surface deformation detection. To adapt the unique feature of rock mass surface, the AKAZE algorithm with the best performance in rock mass feature detection is introduced to improve SfM. The surface reconstructing procedure mainly consists of image acquisition, feature point detection, sparse reconstruction, and dense reconstruction. Hereafter, the proposed method was verified by three experiments. Experiment 1 showed that this method effectively reconstructed the rock mass model. Experiment 2 proved the advanced accuracy of the improved SfM compared with the traditional one in reconstructing the rock mass surface. Eventually, in Experiment 3, the surface deformation of rock mass was quantified through reconstructing images before and after the disturbance. All results have shown that the proposed method could provide reliable information in rock mass surface reconstruction and deformation detection.
