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

Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer after smoking, and its concentration can reach critical levels when it accumulates inside a dwelling through pores and cracks connecting the basement to the living space. This concentration can be influenced by other factors, such as atmospheric parameters. The values of these variables were measured inside 21 dwellings in the village of Villy. These variables are measured using a corentium pro equipped with a silicon detector to quantify radon and four sensors to measure meteorological parameters and detect movement during data acquisition. Inside each dwelling, a short-term measurement is taken for 48 h. The results show that radon-222 concentrations ranged from[Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text], with an average value of [Formula: see text]. The inside temperature ranged from 32.3[Formula: see text]0.5 to 38.8[Formula: see text] °C, with an average value of 36[Formula: see text] °C. Humidity ranged from 12.5[Formula: see text] to 40.4[Formula: see text] %rh, with an average value of 28.1[Formula: see text] %rh and pressure ranged from 97.3175[Formula: see text] to 97.7171[Formula: see text] kPa, with an average of 97.5350[Formula: see text] kPa. During the day, radon concentration is highest at 4 a.m. and lowest at 11 a.m. This concentration follows a two-way pattern. It increases between midnight and 7 a.m. and between 6 p.m. and midnight, then decreases from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. The spatiotemporal distribution reveals that atmospheric parameters influence radon concentration. A decrease in temperature corresponds to an increase in humidity and pressure, leading to an increase in indoor radon concentration. Conversely, an increase in temperature corresponds to a decrease in humidity and pressure, leading to a decrease in indoor radon concentration.
