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

To study the electromagnetic scattering of tilt-rotor aircraft during multi-mode continuous flight, a dynamic simulation approach is presented. A time-varying mesh method is established to characterize the dynamic rotation and tilting of tilt-rotor aircraft. Shooting and bouncing rays and the uniform theory of diffraction are used to calculate the multi-mode radar cross-section (RCS). And the scattering mechanisms of tilt-rotor aircraft are investigated by extracting the micro-Doppler and inverse synthetic aperture radar images. The results show that the dynamic RCS of tilt-rotor aircraft in helicopter and airplane mode exhibits obvious periodicity, and the transition mode leads to a strong specular reflection on the rotor's upper surface, which increases the RCS with a maximum increase of about 36 dB. The maximum micro-Doppler shift has functional relationships with flight time, tilt speed, and wave incident direction. By analyzing the change patterns of maximum shift, the real-time flight state and mode can be identified. There are some significant scattering sources on the body of tilt-rotor aircraft that are distributed in a planar or point-like manner, and the importance of different scattering sources varies in different flight modes. The pre-studies on the key scattering areas can provide effective help for the stealth design of the target.
