Assembly along lines in boundary-driven dynamical system.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We introduce a simple dynamical rule in which each particle locates a particle that is farthest from it and moves towards it. Repeated application of this algorithm results in the formation of unusual dynamical patterns: during the process of assembly the system self-organizes into slices of low particle density separated by lines of increasingly high particle density along which most particles move. As the process proceeds, pairs of lines meet and merge with each other until a single line remains and particles move along it towards the zone of assembly. We show that this pattern is governed by particles (attractors) situated on the instantaneous outer boundary of the system and that both in two and in three dimensions the lines are formed by zigzag motion of a particle towards a pair of nearly equidistant attractors. This novel line-dominated assembly is very different from the local assembly in which particles that move towards their nearest neighbors produce point-like clusters that coalesce into new point-like clusters, etc.
