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

Synchronized motion between two self-running oil droplets floating on an aqueous phase is reported. We describe the results of our observation on the interference between a pair of centimeter-sized nitrobenzene droplets undergoing back-and-forth motion on a waterway. The two droplets exhibit a swinging type of synchronization when a thin glass capillary is placed at the midpoint of the waterway with a narrow rectangle shape. Furthermore, 2:1 synchronized oscillation of the periodicities of this back-and-forth motion is generated when the capillary is shifted away from the center of the waterway. We discuss the mechanism of the emergence of synchronized swinging motion for the pair of droplets based on a simple mathematical model with nonlinear coupled differential equations.
