Sufficient Dimension Reduction for Feasible and Robust Estimation of Average Causal Effect.
Article in Statistica Sinica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
When estimating the treatment effect in an observational study, we use a semiparametric locally efficient dimension reduction approach to assess both the treatment assignment mechanism and the average responses in both treated and non-treated groups. We then integrate all results through imputation, inverse probability weighting and double robust augmentation estimators. Double robust estimators are locally efficient while imputation estimators are super-efficient when the response models are correct. To take advantage of both procedures, we introduce a shrinkage estimator to automatically combine the two, which retains the double robustness property while improving on the variance when the response model is correct. We demonstrate the performance of these estimators through simulated experiments and a real dataset concerning the effect of maternal smoking on baby birth weight.
