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

A code X is k-circular if any concatenation of at most k words from X, when read on a circle, admits exactly one partition into words from X. It is circular if it is k-circular for every integer k. While it is not a priori clear from the definition, there exists, for every pair [Formula: see text], an integer k such that every k-circular [Formula: see text]-letter code over an alphabet of cardinality n is circular, and we determine the least such integer k for all values of n and [Formula: see text]. The k-circular codes may represent an important evolutionary step between the circular codes, such as the comma-free codes, and the genetic code.
