Speeding up iterative applications of the BUILD supertree algorithm.
Article in PeerJ, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The Open Tree of Life (OToL) project produces a supertree that summarizes phylogenetic knowledge from tree estimates published in the primary literature. The supertree construction algorithm iteratively calls Aho's Build algorithm thousands of times in order to assess the compatability of different phylogenetic groupings. We describe an incrementalized version of the Build algorithm that is able to share work between successive calls to Build. We provide details that allow a programmer to implement the incremental algorithm BuildInc, including pseudo-code and a description of data structures. We assess the effect of BuildInc on our supertree algorithm by analyzing simulated data and by analyzing a supertree problem taken from the OpenTree 13.4 synthesis tree. We find that BuildInc provides up to 550-fold speedup for our supertree algorithm.
