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

This work presents a method to calculate the meniscus shape by solving the differential equation based on the Young-Laplace equation. More specifically, the differential equation is solved by applying the cubic Bézier curve. A complicated nonlinear differential equation is solved using the Bézier control points and the least-squares method while maintaining computational simplicity. The results show all of the expected features of the meniscus under the gravitational force. A brief discussion is also made on the effect of the errors on the results. The method is further validated by its agreement with the numerical solutions reported in the existing literature.
