Incomplete Tests of Conditional Association for the Assessment of Model Assumptions.
Article in Psychometrika, 2022. 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
Many of the models that have been proposed for response data share the assumptions that define the monotone homogeneity (MH) model. Observable properties that are implied by the MH model allow for these assumptions to be tested. For binary response data, the most restrictive of these properties is called conditional association (CA). All the other properties considered can be considered incomplete tests of CA that alleviate the practical limitations encountered when assessing the MH model assumptions using CA. It is found that the assessment of the MH model assumptions with an incomplete test of CA, rather than CA, is generally associated with a substantial loss of information. We also look at the sensitivity of the observable properties to model violation and discuss the implications of the results. It is argued that more research is required about the extent to which the assumptions and the model specifications influence the inferences made from response data.
