Bayesian inference on quasi-sparse count data.
Article in Biometrika, 2016. 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
There is growing interest in analysing high-dimensional count data, which often exhibit quasi-sparsity corresponding to an overabundance of zeros and small nonzero counts. Existing methods for analysing multivariate count data via Poisson or negative binomial log-linear hierarchical models with zero-inflation cannot flexibly adapt to quasi-sparse settings. We develop a new class of continuous local-global shrinkage priors tailored to quasi-sparse counts. Theoretical properties are assessed, including flexible posterior concentration and stronger control of false discoveries in multiple testing. Simulation studies demonstrate excellent small-sample properties relative to competing methods. We use the method to detect rare mutational hotspots in exome sequencing data and to identify North American cities most impacted by terrorism.
