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
The determination of the indoor air temperature is necessary for evaluating human comfort, health, and living conditions. Existing measuring methods require entering a room, which can disturb the daily lives of residents and consume large amounts of manpower, material, and financial resources. To overcome these obstacles, an exploratory approach was proposed in this study to estimate the indoor air temperature by obtaining the outdoor building window surface temperature without intrusion using infrared technology. A numerical model was established to describe the heat transfer process between the indoor and outdoor air via window glass. Experiments were conducted in a test room to capture infrared images of the exterior window and measure indoor air temperatures and window surface temperatures under different modes. The estimated indoor air temperatures were compared with the experimental data. The effects of window property parameters and ambient parameters on indoor air temperature estimation were analyzed. Results show that the deviations of the indoor air temperature between estimated and measured values in heating, natural ventilation, and cooling modes varied from -0.7 °C to 0.6 °C, -1.1 °C-0.7 °C, and -0.1 °C-1.3 °C, respectively. Based on the sensitivity analysis, the outer surface temperature of the window outer layer was crucial for estimating the accuracy of the indoor air temperature in practical applications. The proposed exploratory approach provides a potential means for remotely obtaining indoor air temperatures using infrared technology.
