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

In urban environments, pollutant ingress from outdoor sources poses a significant challenge to indoor air quality. Cross-ventilation, while essential for passive cooling and natural airflow, can also facilitate the entry of outdoor contaminants into indoor spaces. To investigate the dynamics of outdoor-to-indoor pollutant transport, the present study employs an idealized configuration, namely, a hollow cube representing a scaled-down model building with window openings in the upstream and downstream faces, subjected to an upstream passive scalar source within an atmospheric boundary layer. The experiments are conducted in two distinct facilities: a water tunnel using Rhodamine dye as the scalar, and a wind tunnel using propane gas, all performed at a specified flow Reynolds number of
