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

The aim of the present work is to establish an approximate analytical solution for the nonlinear Susceptible, Exposed, Infected, Recovered (SEIR) model applied to novel coronavirus COVID-19. The mathematical model depending of five nonlinear differential equations, is studied and approximate solutions are obtained using Optimal Auxiliary Functions Method (OAFM). Our technique ensures a fast convergence of the solutions after only one iteration. The nonstandard part of OAFM is described by the presence of so-called auxiliary functions and of the optimal convergence-control parameters. We have a great freedom to select the auxiliary functions and the number of optimal convergence-control parameters which are optimally determined. Our approach is independent of the presence of small or large parameters in the governing equations or in the initial/boundary conditions, is effective, simple and very efficient.
