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

Estimating the crop leaf area index (LAI) accurately is very critical in agricultural remote sensing, especially in monitoring crop growth and yield prediction. The development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has been significant in recent years and has been extensively applied in agricultural remote sensing (RS). The vegetation index (VI), which reflects spectral information, is a commonly used RS method for estimating LAI. Texture features can reflect the differences in the canopy structure of rice at different growth stages. In this research, a method was developed to improve the accuracy of rice LAI estimation during the whole growing season by combining texture information based on wavelet transform and spectral information derived from the VI. During the whole growth period, we obtained UAV images of two study areas using a 12-band Mini-MCA system and performed corresponding ground measurements. Several VI values were calculated, and the texture analysis was carried out. New indices were constructed by mathematically combining the wavelet texture and spectral information. Compared with the corresponding VIs, the new indices reduced the saturation effect and were less sensitive to the emergence of panicles. The determination coefficient (R
