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

This study presents a low-cost edge-IoT-based structural health monitoring (SHM) architecture for crack monitoring in operational underground tunnels. The system integrates crack-displacement sensing, temperature measurement, ESP32-based edge processing, LoRa/MQTT communication, AES/ECDSA-based data protection, and cloud-based data management. The architecture was validated through a 30-day field campaign at two representative cracks in the Hai Van Tunnel, with measurements acquired at 60 s sampling intervals. The results show that edge-based wavelet-Kalman processing improved measurement stability and reduced high-frequency noise, while the implemented security mechanism introduced only minor latency relative to the monitoring cycle. The two monitored cracks exhibited small micrometer-scale fluctuations associated with temperature variation and showed no cumulative widening trend during the observation period. This study demonstrates the feasibility of campaign-based tunnel crack monitoring using a trustworthy edge-sensing architecture, while longer deployments with more sensing nodes are needed to fully evaluate scalability and operational durability.
