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

Synchronized movement of (both unicellular and multicellular) systems can be observed almost everywhere. Understanding of how organisms are regulated to synchronized behavior is one of the challenging issues in the field of collective motion. It is hypothesized that one or a few agents in a group regulate(s) the dynamics of the whole collective, known as leader(s). The identification of the leader (influential) agent(s) is very crucial. This article reviews different mathematical models that represent different types of leadership. We focus on the improvement of the leader-follower classification problem. It was found using a simulation model that the use of interaction domain information significantly improves the leader-follower classification ability using both linear schemes and information-theoretic schemes for quantifying influence. This article also reviews different schemes that can be used to identify the interaction domain using the motion data of agents.
