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

Models for the transmission of an infectious disease in one and two host populations with and without self-regulation are analyzed. Many unusual behaviors such as multiple positive equilibria and periodic solutions occur in previous models that use the mass-action (density-dependent) incidence. In contrast, the models formulated using the frequency-dependent (standard) incidence have the behavior of a classic endemic model, since below the threshold, the disease dies out, and above the threshold, the disease persists and the infectious fractions approach an endemic equilibrium. The results given here reinforce previous examples in which there are major differences in behavior between models using mass-action and frequency-dependent incidences.
