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

The jamming transition, generally manifested by a rapid increase of rigidity under compression (i.e. compression hardening), is ubiquitous in amorphous materials. Here we study shear hardening in deeply annealed frictionless packings generated by numerical simulations, reporting critical scalings absent in compression hardening. We demonstrate that hardening is a natural consequence of shear-induced memory destruction. Based on an elasticity theory, we reveal two independent microscopic origins of shear hardening: (i) the increase of the interaction bond number and (ii) the emergence of anisotropy and long-range correlations in the orientations of bonds-the latter highlights the essential difference between compression and shear hardening. Through the establishment of physical laws specific to anisotropy, our work completes the criticality and universality of jamming transition, and the elasticity theory of amorphous solids.
