Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Traditional Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) approaches face challenges with increased computational demands and errors as terrain complexity and flight altitude rising. This study introduces the Crank-Nicolson-Cycle-Sweep-FDTD (CNCS-FDTD) method, enhancing airborne ground penetrating radar (GPR) simulations over undulating terrains. CNCS-FDTD, as an unconditionally stable implicit algorithm, overcomes these by allowing larger time steps without the constraints of the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) condition. Our research aims to assess how CNCS-FDTD can improve computational efficiency and accuracy in modeling airborne GPR responses across varied terrains. Initial simulations using a three-dimensional graben model indicate that CNCS-FDTD can maintain calculation stability with significantly larger time steps, reducing computational time by 42%. To further verify the reliability of the numerical simulation results, the paper also presents experimental tests of the undulating terrain model. By comparing the numerical and physical simulation results of models under different flight altitudes and terrain conditions, the accuracy of the simulation results is validated.
