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 properties of the potential overlap between two networks A,B sharing the same set of N nodes (a two-layer network) whose respective degree distributions p_{A}(k),p_{B}(k) are given. Defining the overlap coefficient α as the Jaccard index, we prove that α is very close to 0 when A and B are random and independently generated. We derive an upper bound α_{M} for the maximum overlap coefficient permitted in terms of p_{A}(k), p_{B}(k), and N. Then we present an algorithm based on cross rewiring of links to obtain a two-layer network with any prescribed α inside the range (0,α_{M}). A refined version of the algorithm allows us to minimize the cross-layer correlations that unavoidably appear for values of α beyond a critical overlap α_{c}<α_{M}. Finally, we present a very simple example of a susceptible-infectious-recovered epidemic model with information dissemination and use the algorithms to determine the impact of the overlap on the final outbreak size predicted by the model.
