Invited commentary: Some advantages of the relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI)--towards better estimators of additive interaction.
Article in American journal of epidemiology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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
In the accompanying commentary, Rose and van der Laan (Am J Epidemiol. 2014;179(6):663-669) criticize the relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) measure, the use of additive interaction, and the weighting approach we developed to assess RERI with case-control data. In this commentary, we note some of the advantages of using additive measures of interaction, such as RERI, in making decisions about targeting interventions toward certain subgroups and in assessing mechanistic interaction. We discuss the relationship between Rose and van der Laan's estimator for case-control data and the one we had previously proposed. We also develop a new doubly robust estimator for determining the RERI with case-control data when the prevalence or incidence of the outcome is known.
