Self-rated health trajectories: A dynamic time warp analysis.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Self-rated health (SRH), individuals' overall perception of their health, is a key predictor of health events. To target disease prevention efforts, it is important to understand how SRH develops over time. The goal of this short communication is to find prototypic SRH trajectories by applying dynamic time warping, a time series comparison technique initially developed for speech recognition. Revealing prototypic SRH trajectories can help direct disease prevention efforts towards trajectories that are more likely to result in adverse health events. Based on data from a Dutch representative sample of 2,154 individuals, our dynamic time warp analysis suggests that Dutch individuals do not typically show a steady growth or decline in SRH. Instead, we identified four relatively stable SRH trajectories that differed in average SRH. One of these trajectories is a path of consistent low SRH.
