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

Zero-inflated count outcomes arise quite often in research and practice. Parametric models such as the zero-inflated Poisson and zero-inflated negative binomial are widely used to model such responses. However, interpretations of those models focus on the at-risk subpopulation of a two-component population mixture and fail to provide direct inference about marginal effects for the overall population. Recently, new approaches have been proposed to facilitate such marginal inferences for count responses with excess zeros. However, they are likelihood based and impose strong assumptions on data distributions. In this paper, we propose a new distribution-free, or semiparametric, alternative to provide robust inference for marginal effects when population mixtures are defined by zero-inflated count outcomes. The proposed method also applies to longitudinal studies with missing data following the general missing at random mechanism. The proposed approach is illustrated with both simulated and real study data.
