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

The idea of this research is to develop a method of airflow velocity measurement in underground mines having a network of long-distance crossing tunnels, where inspections of the ventilation system are required. Currently, this time-consuming procedure is conducted manually, but it has great importance when the mine configuration is subjected to changes. The method is based on the measurements of UAV trajectory deviation when it crosses the lateral air streams while moving along the tunnel. The signals of the gyroscope from the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) are used as indicators. The calibration of the proposed method has been conducted in laboratory conditions similar to real conditions. The minimal sensitivity of 0.3 m/s required by regulations is achievable for small drones, and the error is less than 5%. The maximum measured airflow velocity depends on the UAV model and its stabilization system. Recommendations are formulated for method implementation in practice.
