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

Differential entropy, along with fractal dimension, is herein employed to describe and interpret the shape complexity of self-similar organic islands. The islands are imaged with in situ Atomic Force Microscopy, following, step-by-step, the evolution of their shape while deposition proceeds. The fractal dimension shows a linear correlation with the film thickness, whereas the differential entropy presents an exponential plateau. Plotting differential entropy versus fractal dimension, a linear correlation can be found. This analysis enables one to discern the 6T growth on different surfaces, i.e., native SiO
