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.
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
Swarm robotics carries out complex tasks beyond the power of simple individual robots. Limited capabilities of sensing and communication by simple mobile robots have been essential inspirations for aggregation tasks. Aggregation is crucial behavior when performing complex tasks in swarm robotics systems. Many difficulties are facing the aggregation algorithm. These difficulties are as such: this algorithm has to work under the restrictions of no information about positions, no central control, and only local information interaction among robots. This paper proposed a new aggregation algorithm. This algorithm combined with the wave algorithm to achieve collective navigation and the recruitment strategy. In this work, the aggregation algorithm consists of two main phases: the searching phase, and the surrounding phase. The execution time of the proposed algorithm was analyzed. The experimental results showed that the aggregation time in the proposed algorithm was significantly reduced by 41% compared to other algorithms in the literature. Moreover, we analyzed our results using a one-way analysis of variance. Also, our results showed that the increasing swarm size significantly improved the performance of the group.
