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 present context-aware benchmarking and performance engineering of a mature TByte-scale air quality database system which was created by the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) and contains one of the world's largest collections of near-surface air quality measurements. A special feature of our data service https://join.fz-juelich.de is on-demand processing of several air quality metrics directly from the TOAR database. As a service that is used by more than 350 users of the international air quality research community, our web service must be easily accessible and functionally flexible, while delivering good performance. The current on-demand calculations of air quality metrics outside the database together with the necessary transfer of large volume raw data are identified as the major performance bottleneck. In this study, we therefore explore and benchmark in-database approaches for the statistical processing, which results in performance enhancements of up to 32%.
