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

We developed a sound discrimination device to identify and localize the species of nocturnal animals in their natural habitat. The sound discrimination device is equipped with a microphone, a light-emitting diode, and a band-pass filter. By tuning the center frequency of the filter to include a dominant frequency of the calls of a focal species, we enable the device to be illuminated only when detecting the calls of the focal species. In experiments in a laboratory room, we tuned the sound discrimination devices to detect the calls of Hyla japonica or Rhacophorus schlegelii and broadcast the frog calls from loudspeakers. By analyzing the illumination pattern of the devices, we successfully identified and localized the two kinds of sound sources. Next, we placed the sound discrimination devices in a field site where actual male frogs (H. japonica and R. schlegelii) produced sounds. The analysis of the illumination pattern demonstrates the efficacy of the developed devices in a natural environment and also enables us to extract pairs of male frogs that significantly overlapped or alternated their calls.
