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

Due to the rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) systems operating in industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) frequency bands, many researchers have attempted to determine the amount of interference that can be expected in such systems. The basic information required for this purpose is the current occupancy of frequency channels in various geographical locations. It is known that the occupancy measurement must last long enough to allow for the detection of low duty cycle transmissions. In this paper, it is shown that fulfilling only this criterion may lead to unreliable results being obtained. In two measurement campaigns performed in two different locations, the occupancy of a selected sub-band in the 868 MHz ISM band was determined on the basis of two hour-long observations repeated several times a day. During a typical day, the ratio of the maximum and the minimum result depended on the location and reached a value of eight; however, on one day, a period of abnormally high channel usage reaching 65% was observed in the location in which typical values did not exceed 1%.
