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

Every year about fifty volcanoes erupt on average, posing a serious threat for populations living in the neighboring areas. To mitigate the volcanic risk, many satellite monitoring systems have been developed. Information from the medium infrared (MIR) and thermal infrared (TIR) bands of sensors such as the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) is commonly exploited for this purpose. However, the potential of daytime shortwave infrared (SWIR) observations from the Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) aboard Sentinel-3 satellites in supporting the near-real-time monitoring of thermal volcanic activity has not been fully evaluated so far. In this work, we assess this potential by exploring the contribution of a normalized hotspot index (NHI) in the monitoring of the recent Home Reef (Tonga Islands) eruption. By analyzing the time series of the maximum NHI
