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

Due to the internal environment of highway tunnels, tunnel lighting has scattering, deflection, illuminance, and uniformity problems. Each factor will have a direct impact on drivers. Due to the low illuminance and brightness, the lighting efficiency can be improved by shortening the diodes' distance. The SmileRay LED street light module will be adopted as the primary design structure, and the CREO modeling software will construct the initial lens model. The geometric optics laws will be applied, the LightTools will be used to simulate the second optical lens design, lightbar light source module design, lighting mechanism modifications, etc., and then use the lens light distribution with the DIALux lighting design software to carry out the tunnel lighting simulation of spec verification, and optimize the installation through the results. The simulation results show the tunnel lighting module designed in this research can provide 10499 lm of luminous flux when the lamp energy consumption is only 75 W. The total lamp optical efficiency reaches 97%, and the brightness uniformity comes to 0.755 after the modified installation, which aligns with the CIE 88-2004 tunnel lighting specification standard.
