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

The small-angle optical particle counter (OPC) can detect particles with strong light absorption. At the same time, it can ignore the properties of the detected particles and detect the particle size singly and more accurately. Reasonably improving the resolution of the low pulse signal of fine particles is key to improving the detection accuracy of the small-angle OPC. In this paper, a new adaptive filtering method for the small-angle scattering signals of particles is proposed based on the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. By analyzing the characteristics of the small-angle scattering signals, a variable forgetting factor (VFF) strategy is introduced to optimize the forgetting factor in the traditional RLS algorithm. It can distinguish the scattering signal from the stray light signal and dynamically adapt to the change in pulse amplitude according to different light absorptions and different particle sizes. To verify the filtering effect, small-angle scattering pulse extraction experiments were carried out in a simulated smoke box with different particle properties. The experiments show that the proposed VFF-RLS algorithm can effectively suppress system stray light and background noise. When the particle detection signal appears, the algorithm has fast convergence and tracking speed and highlights the particle pulse signal well. Compared with that of the traditional scattering pulse extraction method, the resolution of the processed scattering pulse signal of particles is greatly improved, and the extraction of weak particle scattering pulses at a small angle has a greater advantage. Finally, the effect of filter order in the algorithm on the results of extracting scattering pulses is discussed.
