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
Comprehensive maritime domain awareness is crucial for navigation safety, traffic management, and security surveillance. In the context of an increasingly complex modern electromagnetic environment, the disadvantages of traditional active single-station radars, such as their high cost and susceptibility to interference, have started to surface. Due to their unique advantages, such as low cost, environmental sustainability (by reusing existing signals), and resilience in congested spectral environments, non-cooperative passive multistatic radar (PMR) systems have gained significant interest in maritime monitoring. This paper presents the research background of non-cooperative passive multistatic radar systems, performs a fundamental analysis of the detection performance of multistatic radar systems, and suggests an optimization method for the transceiver configuration of non-cooperative passive multistatic radar systems based on geometric coverage theory and a signal-to-noise ratio model. A multi-objective optimization model is developed, considering both detection coverage and positioning error, and is solved using the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). The optimization aims to find the optimal receiver location relative to a fixed configuration of four transmitters, representing common maritime traffic patterns. According to the simulation results, the multi-target genetic algorithm can be utilized to optimize the receiver position under the S-band radar settings used in this work. Compared to a random placement baseline, this can reduce the positioning error by about 8.9% and extend the detection range by about 15.8%. Furthermore, for the specific four-transmitter configuration and S-band radar parameters considered in this study, it is found that the best detection performance is more likely to be obtained when the receiver is placed within 15 km of the transmitters' geometric center.
