Quantitative distribution of human exhaled particles in a ventilation room.
Article in Building simulation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Respiratory viruses can be attached to human exhaled particles and spread from person to person through respiratory activities. The purpose of this study is to obtain the quantitative description formula of human exhaled particles in the ventilated room through amount number of numerical simulation calculations and regression statistical analysis of the simulated data. In this study, a combination of numerical simulation and laboratory experiments was used, and the results were tallied preferably. Bacillus subtilis was released as a release source to investigate the migration and distribution of bioaerosol. The results show that under the condition of high air supply velocity, due to the disturbance of human respiration and airflow, the diffusion velocity of exhaled particles was faster and the diffusion range is larger than that of low air supply velocity within the same time frame. No matter where the location of the manikin was in the room, the exhaled particles would spread to the whole room in at least 900 s. The method used in this study could be used to predict the distribution of human exhaled particles concentration in different indoor spaces, such as public transport and hospitals. These findings could provide valuable reference for the location of indoor air purifiers, which plays a guiding role in the construction of a healthy indoor environment.
