Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This study presents an innovative hexagonal deployment model designed specifically for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with a primary application in precision agriculture. The proposed protocol integrates advanced features, notably an adaptive frequency-hopping spread spectrum (AFHSS) mechanism and a decentralized real-time adaptation strategy to optimize data transmission in dynamic agricultural environments. The simulation study, conducted in diverse terrains with realistic sensor node distributions, meticulously evaluates the protocol's performance using comprehensive Quality of Service (QoS) metrics. The hexagonal deployment model operates by strategically positioning sensor nodes in a hexagonal grid pattern, ensuring uniform coverage of the agricultural field. The AFHSS mechanism dynamically adjusts frequency channels, mitigating interference and fortifying the network's robustness against external disruptions. Complementing this, the decentralized real-time adaptation empowers individual nodes to autonomously respond to the ever-changing environmental conditions, optimizing data transmission efficiency. Quantitative results from the simulations exhibit outstanding performance metrics. The protocol achieves an average latency of 50 milliseconds, a packet loss rate below 2%, a success rate exceeding 95%, and highly efficient obstacle management, with adjusted nodes accounting for less than 5%. These compelling outcomes underscore the protocol's exceptional ability to deliver responsive and reliable data transmission, positioning it as a promising solution for enhancing environmental monitoring in precision agriculture. This study provides quantitative evidence of the protocol's prowess and delves into the nuanced working mechanisms, offering a deeper understanding of its potential impact. The findings contribute significant insights to the field, serving as a robust foundation for researchers and practitioners engaged in designing and implementing resilient WSNs tailored for precision agriculture applications.
