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

Identifying influential spreaders in complex networks is critical for information spread and malware diffusion suppression. In this paper, we propose a novel influential spreader identification method, called SpreadRank, which considers the path reachability in information spreading and uses its quantitative index as a measure of node spread centrality to obtain the spread influence of a single node. To avoid the overlapping of the influence range of the node spread, this method establishes a dynamic influential node set selection mechanism based on the spread centrality value and the principle of minimizing the maximum connected branch after network segmentation, and it selects a group of nodes with the greatest overall spread influence. Experiments based on the SIR model demonstrate that, compared to other existing methods, the selected influential spreaders of SpreadRank can quickly diffuse or suppress information more effectively.
