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

Systematic investigations on the seasonal variation of indoor radon, thoron and their progeny levels have been carried out in Belagavi district of Karnataka, India. The radon and thoron levels were measured using LR-115 type II dosimeter in cups with single-entry pinhole. The measurements were carried out in all the four season, viz, monsoon, autumn, winter and summer, in selected houses of the region. The higher indoor radon levels were observed during autumn with an average concentration of 56.45 Bq m
