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

We study the transient dynamics of an A+B→0 process on a pair of randomly coupled networks, where reactants are initially separated. We find that, for sufficiently small fractions q of cross couplings, the concentration of A (or B) particles decays linearly in a first stage and crosses over to a second linear decrease at a mixing time t_{x}. By numerical and analytical arguments, we show that for symmetric and homogeneous structures t_{x}∝(〈k〉/q)log(〈k〉/q) where 〈k〉 is the mean degree of both networks. Being this behavior is in marked contrast with a purely diffusive process, where the mixing time would go simply like 〈k〉/q, we identify the logarithmic slowing down in t_{x} to be the result of a spontaneous mechanism of repulsion between the reactants A and B due to the interactions taking place at the networks' interface. We show numerically how this spontaneous repulsion effect depends on the topology of the underlying networks.
