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
Modern surveying is increasingly focused on fast data acquisition and processing using lightweight, low-cost equipment, particularly for the continuous monitoring of structures and infrastructures. This study investigates the use of LiDAR and RGB sensors embedded in Apple and Android smartphones, paired with an innovative device, the viDoc RTK Rover, for centimeter-level surveying. Three case studies were selected, each characterized by different materials, functional uses, and environmental contexts. The methodology centers on evaluating final accuracy during both the data acquisition and processing phases. Coordinates of target points were obtained directly via the viDoc device and indirectly through dense point clouds. Validation was conducted using a geodetic GNSS receiver. Results demonstrate that, in most cases, the system achieves accuracy comparable to traditional surveying methods. The findings confirm that these emerging tools offer a reliable and efficient solution for rapid 3D surveys with centimeter-level accuracy.
