Path Planning of a Mobile Delivery Robot Operating in a Multi-Story Building Based on a Predefined Navigation Tree.

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
Planning the path of a mobile robot that must transport and deliver small packages inside a multi-story building is a problem that requires a combination of spatial and operational information, such as the location of origin and destination points and how to interact with elevators. This paper presents a solution to this problem, which has been formulated under the following assumptions: (1) the map of the building's floors is available; (2) the position of all origin and destination points is known; (3) the mobile robot has sensors to self-localize on the floors; (4) the building is equipped with remotely controlled elevators; and (5) all doors expected in a delivery route will be open. We start by defining a static navigation tree describing the weighted paths in a multi-story building. We then proceed to describe how this navigation tree can be used to plan the route of a mobile robot and estimate the total length of any delivery route using Dijkstra's algorithm. Finally, we show simulated routing results that demonstrate the effectiveness of this proposal when applied to an autonomous delivery robot operating in a multi-story building.
