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
To measure the cross-view spacing between adjacent fastener bolts in railway turnouts, this study develops a dual-DLP-sensor structured-light measurement system without overlapping fields of view. A bridge-type calibration device is used to rapidly update the extrinsic parameters of the two DLP sensors. In a unified coordinate frame, the system integrates two-dimensional region-of-interest candidate generation, local three-dimensional geometric fitting, cross-view pairing, and measurement validity assessment to output bolt-spacing results. Experiments were conducted on 23 pairs of adjacent bolts with 15 repeated measurements using two DLP sensors. Under normal conditions, the mean absolute error, root mean square error, and average standard deviation were 0.261 mm, 0.290 mm, and 0.062 mm, respectively. Compared with fixed extrinsic parameters without updating, the bridge-based extrinsic update reduced the mean absolute error from 1.500 mm to 0.261 mm. The results indicate that the proposed task-driven dual-DLP-sensor measurement system can achieve stable cross-view spacing measurement with explicit validity criteria under non-overlapping fields of view, repeated deployment, and varying on-site data quality.
