Cumulative damage for multi-type epidemics and an application to infectious diseases.
Article in Journal of mathematical biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A continuous time multivariate stochastic model is proposed for assessing the damage of a multi-type epidemic cause to a population as it unfolds. The instants when cases occur and the magnitude of their injure are random. Thus, we define a cumulative damage based on counting processes and a multivariate mark process. For a large population we approximate the behavior of this damage process by its asymptotic distribution. Also, we analyze the distribution of the stopping times when the numbers of cases caused by the epidemic attain levels beyond certain thresholds. We focus on introducing some tools for statistical inference on the parameters related with the epidemic. In this regard, we present a general hypothesis test for homogeneity in epidemics and apply it to data of Covid-19 in Chile.
