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

Hidden corrosion in aircraft structures, not detected on time, can have a significant influence on aircraft structural integrity and lead to catastrophic consequences. According to the widely accepted damage tolerance philosophy, non-destructive inspections are performed to assess structural safety and reliability. One of the inspection techniques used for such an inspection is the optical D-Sight technique. Since D-Sight is used primarily as a qualitative method, it is difficult to assess the evolution of a structural condition simply by comparing the inspection results. In the following study, the method to monitor hidden corrosion growth is proposed on the basis of historical data from D-Sight inspections. The method is based on geometric transforms and segmentation techniques to remove the influence of measurement conditions, such as the angle of observation or illumination, and to compare corroded regions for a sequence of D-Sight images acquired during historical inspections. The analysis of the proposed method was performed on the sequences of D-Sight images acquired from inspections of Polish military aircraft in the period from 2002 to 2017. The proposed method represents an effective tool for monitoring hidden corrosion growth in metallic aircraft structures based on a sequence of D-Sight images.
