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

In this work, a mathematical model consisting of a compartmentalized coupled nonlinear system of fractional order differential equations describing the transmission dynamics of COVID-19 is studied. The fractional derivative is taken in the Atangana-Baleanu-Caputo sense. The basic dynamic properties of the fractional model such as invariant region, existence of equilibrium points as well as basic reproduction number are briefly discussed. Qualitative results on the existence and uniqueness of solutions via a fixed point argument as well as stability of the model solutions in the sense of Ulam-Hyers are furnished. Furthermore, the model is fitted to the COVID-19 data circulated by Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and the two-step Adams-Bashforth method incorporating the noninteger order parameter is used to obtain an iterative scheme from which numerical results for the model can be generated. Numerical simulations for the proposed model using Adams-Bashforth iterative scheme are presented to describe the behaviors at distinct values of the fractional index parameter for of each of the system state variables. It was shown numerically that the value of fractional index parameter has a significant effect on the transmission behavior of the disease however, the infected population (the exposed, the asymptomatic infectious, the symptomatic infectious) shrinks with time when the basic reproduction number is less than one irrespective of the value of fractional index parameter.
