Calculation Formulas and Simulation Algorithms for Entropy of Function of LR Fuzzy Intervals.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Entropy has continuously arisen as one of the pivotal issues in optimization, mainly in portfolios, as an indicator of risk measurement. Aiming to simplify operations and extending applications of entropy in the field of LR fuzzy interval theory, this paper first proposes calculation formulas for the entropy of function via the inverse credibility distribution to directly calculate the entropy of linear function or simple nonlinear function of LR fuzzy intervals. Subsequently, to deal with the entropy of complicated nonlinear function, two novel simulation algorithms are separately designed by combining the uniform discretization process and the numerical integration process with the proposed calculation formulas. Compared to the existing simulation algorithms, the numerical results show that the advantage of the algorithms is well displayed in terms of stability, accuracy, and speed. On the whole, the simplified calculation formulas and the effective simulation algorithms proposed in this paper provide a powerful tool for the LR fuzzy interval theory, especially in entropy optimization.
