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
The complexity of the underwater environment enables significant energy consumption of sensor nodes for communication with base stations in underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs), and the energy consumption of nodes in different water depths is unbalanced. How to improve the energy efficiency of sensor nodes and meanwhile balance the energy consumption of nodes in different water depths in UWSNs are thus urgent concerns. Therefore, in this paper, we first propose a novel hierarchical underwater wireless sensor transmission (HUWST) framework. We then propose a game-based, energy-efficient underwater communication mechanism in the presented HUWST. It improves the energy efficiency of the underwater sensors personalized according to the various water depth layers of sensor locations. In particular, we integrate the economic game theory in our mechanism to trade off variations in communication energy consumption due to sensors in different water depth layers. Mathematically, the optimal mechanism is formulated as a complex nonlinear integer programming (NIP) problem. A new energy-efficient distributed data transmission mode decision algorithm (E-DDTMD) based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is thus further proposed to tackle this sophisticated NIP problem. The systematic simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our mechanism in improving the energy efficiency of UWSNs. Moreover, our presented E-DDTMD algorithm achieves significantly superior performance to the baseline schemes.
