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
In this study, we propose a method to estimate the Angle-of-Arrival (AoA) of OFDM-based drone signals with wideband and burst characteristics using only a single-channel receiver and a switched-beam antenna. First, six circularly arranged directional antennas are time-division controlled using RF switches to measure the received power of each antenna. Next, the maximum beam pattern and the measured power of each antenna are synthesized in vector form, and the direction of the synthesized vector becomes the angle of arrival of the drone signal. To verify the proposed method, an experiment was conducted using the video signal of DJI Phantom 4 Pro with a bandwidth of 10 MHz. As a result, it was confirmed that stable angle-of-arrival estimation of drone video signals was possible with an average error of less than 5°. The proposed system has the advantage of being able to estimate the AoA of a drone with only a single receiver without the need for synchronization. Therefore, the proposed system is expected to be used as a low-cost, compact, and highly portable anti-drone system.
