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

Finite mixtures of generalized linear models are commonly fitted by maximum likelihood and the EM algorithm. The estimation process and subsequent inferential and classification procedures can be badly affected by the occurrence of outliers. Actually, contamination in the sample at hand may lead to severely biased fitted components and poor classification accuracy. In order to take into account the potential presence of outliers, a robust fitting strategy is proposed that is based on the weighted likelihood methodology. The technique exhibits a satisfactory behavior in terms of both fitting and classification accuracy, as confirmed by some numerical studies and real data examples.
