A flexible theoretical representation for the temporal dynamics of structured populations as paths on polytope complexes.
Article in Journal of mathematical biology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We present a new theoretical framework to represent the dynamics of structured populations through time and across geographic space. We show (i) that the mechanisms by which populations evolve lead to combinatorial structures, and (ii) that measures of gene flow and geographical structure lead to linear systems. These characteristics determine two polytope complexes that encodes all feasible migration scenarios. Analysis of these polytope complexes demonstrates how systems of structured populations can be classified consistently, and how population histories can be represented as paths on a concrete mathematical space, which in turn promises to simplify the search space required for reconstructing past migration processes from population genetic data.
