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

Large data generated by scientific applications imposes challenges in storage and efficient query processing. Many queries against scientific data are analytical in nature and require super-linear computation time using straightforward methods. Spatial distance histogram (SDH) is one of the basic queries to analyze the molecular simulation (MS) data, and it takes quadratic time to compute using brute-force approach. Often, an SDH query is executed continuously to analyze the simulation system over a period of time. This adds to the total time required to compute SDH. In this paper, we propose an approximate algorithm to compute SDH efficiently over consecutive time periods. In our approach, data is organized into a Quad-tree based data structure. The spatial locality of the particles (at given time) in each node of the tree is acquired to determine the particle distribution. Similarly, the temporal locality of particles (between consecutive time periods) in each node is also acquired. The spatial distribution and temporal locality are utilized to compute the approximate SDH at every time instant. The performance is boosted by storing and updating the spatial distribution information over time. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed algorithm is supported by mathematical analysis and results of extensive experiments using biological data generated from real MS studies.
