1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Waterflooding is the most widely used improved oil recovery technique. Predicting the overall oil recovery resulting from waterflooding in oil reservoirs is crucial for effective reservoir management and appropriate decision-making. Machine learning (ML) techniques present resourceful and fast-track tools, aiding in predicting oil recovery, which is time-consuming and costly to accomplish by simulation studies. In this paper, four machine learning models: artificial neural network (ANN), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are applied to estimate the overall oil recovery (R) of water flooding. Initially, statistical methods were employed to analyze the input data before applying machine learning techniques. These models take into consideration the mobility ratio (M), reservoir permeability variation (V), water-oil production ratio (WOR), and initial water saturation (S
