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
After the outbreak of COVID-19, the indoor environment has become particularly important in closed spaces, being a common concern in environmental science and public health, and of great significance for the building environment. To improve the indoor air quality and control the spread of viruses, the analysis of inhalable particles in indoor environments is critical. In this research, we study standards focused on inhalable particles and indoor environmental quality, as well as analyzing the movement and diffusion of indoor particles. Based on our analysis, we conduct an experimental study to determine the distribution of indoor inhalable particles of different sizes before and after diffusion under the conditions of underfloor air distribution. Furthermore, the mathematical modeling method is adopted to simulate the indoor flow field, particle trajectories, and pollutant dispersion process. The k-ε two-equation model is applied as the turbulence model in the numerical simulation, while the Lagrangian discrete phase model is adopted to trace the motion of particles and analyze the distribution characteristics of indoor particles. The results demonstrate that fine particles (i.e., those with size less than 0.5 μm) have a significant impact on the indoor particle concentration, while coarse particles (i.e., with size above 2.5 μm) have a greater influence on the total mass concentration of indoor particles. Small-sized particles can easily follow the airflow and diffuse to upper parts of the room. Overall, the effects of indoor particles on indoor air quality, including the potential threat of aerosol transmission of respiratory infectious diseases, are non-negligible. Application of the presented research can contribute to improving the health-related aspects of the building environment.
