Experimental observations of marginal criticality in granular materials.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
SignificanceAmorphous materials, such as grains, foams, colloids, and glasses, are ubiquitous in nature and our daily life. They can undergo glass transitions or jamming transitions to obtain rigidity either by fast quench or compression, but show subtle changes in the structures compared to the liquid states or liquid-like states. Recent progress on the first-principle replica theory unifies the glass transition and the jamming transition and points out the marginal phase with fractal free-energy landscape within the stable glass phase. Independently, marginal stability analysis predicts the relations between the exponents of the marginal phase. Here, we perform experiments with photoelastic disks and provide direct evidence of these theories in real-world amorphous materials.
