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

This work aims to give an overview of wireless communication technologies (WCT) for underground applications. Difficulties regarding the harsh mining environment and operational constraints for WCT implementation and use are discussed. Selected technologies are then classified regarding underground mining-specific use cases in advanced mining operations. Use-case-based application categories such as 'automation and teleoperation', 'tracking and tracing' and 'Long-Range Underground Monitoring (LUM)' are defined. The use cases determine requirements for the operational suitability and also quantify evaluation criteria for the evaluation of WCT. The result is a comparison by category of the wireless technologies, which underlines potentials of different technologies for defined use cases, but it can be concluded that the technology always has to be evaluated within the use case and operational constraints.
