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 paper presents a high-precision component-type vertical pendulum tiltmeter based on an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) that improves the utility and reliability of geophysical field tilt observation instruments. The system is designed for rapid deployment and offers flexible and efficient adaptability. It comprises a pendulum body, a triangular platform, a locking motor and sealing cover, a ratiometric measurement bridge, a high-speed ADC, and an FPGA embedded system. The pendulum body is a plumb-bob-type single-suspension wire vertical pendulum capable of measuring ground tilt in two orthogonal directions simultaneously. It is installed on a triangular platform, sealed as a whole, and equipped with a locking motor to withstand a free-fall impact of 2 m. The system utilizes a differential capacitance ratio bridge in the measurement circuit, replacing analog circuits with high-speed AD sampling and FPGA digital signal processing technology. This approach reduces hardware expenses and interferences from active devices. The system also features online compilation functionality for flexible measurement parameter settings, high reliability, ease of use, and rapid deployment without the need for professional technical personnel. The proposed tiltmeter holds significant importance for further research in geophysics.
