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

Numerical computation of the expected information content of a prospective experimental design is computationally expensive, requiring calculating the Kullback-Leibler divergence of the posterior distribution from the prior for simulated data from a large sample of points from the prior distribution. In this work, we investigate whether the Unscented Transform (UT) of the prior distribution can provide an adequate estimate of the expected information content in the context of experiment design for a previously validated HIV-1 2-LTR model. Three different schedules with evenly distributed time points have been used to generate the experimental data along with the incorporation of qPCR noise for the study. The UT shows promise in estimating information content by preserving the optimal ordering of 2-LTR sample collection schedules, when compared to completely stochastic sampling from the underlying multivariate distributions.
