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

Multidimensional computerized adaptive testing (MCAT) is one of the widely discussed topics in psychometrics. Within the context of item replenishment in MCAT, it is important to identify the item-trait pattern for each replenished item, which indicates the set of the latent traits that are measured by each replenished item in the item pool. We propose a pattern recognition method based on the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) to detect the optimal item-trait patterns of the replenished items via an MCAT test. Simulation studies are conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed method in pattern recognition accuracy under different conditions across various latent trait correlation, item discrimination, test lengths, and item selection criteria in the test. Results show that the proposed method can accurately and efficiently identify the item-trait patterns of the replenished items in both the two-dimensional and three-dimensional item pools.
