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
Drought has a significant impact on crop growth and productivity, highlighting the critical need for precise and timely soil moisture estimation to mitigate agricultural losses. This study focuses on soil moisture retrieval in northern Hebei Province during July 2012, utilizing eight widely employed remote sensing drought indices derived from MODIS satellite data. These indices were cross-referenced with measured soil moisture levels for analysis. Based on their correlation coefficients, a composite remote sensing drought index set comprising six indices was identified. Furthermore, a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) was employed to estimate soil relative humidity. The accuracy evaluation of the soil moisture estimation model, which integrates multiple remote sensing drought indices and the RBFNN, demonstrated clear superiority over models relying on single drought indices. The model achieved an average estimation accuracy of 87.54 % for soil relative humidity at a depth of 10 cm (SM10) and 87.36 % for a 20 cm depth (SM20). The root mean square errors (RMSE) for the test sets were 0.093 and 0.092, respectively. Validation results for July 2013 indicated that the inversion accurately reflected the actual soil moisture conditions, effectively capturing dynamic moisture changes. These results fully verify the reliability and practicability of the model. These findings introduce a novel approach to local agricultural soil moisture estimation, with significant implications for enhancing agricultural water resource management and decision-making processes.
