Selection Bias in Strong Coupling Experiments.
Article in The journal of physical chemistry letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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 strong coupling of light and molecules offers a potential new pathway to modify the properties of photonic modes and molecules. There are many reasons to be optimistic about the prospects of strong coupling; however, progress in this field is currently hindered by challenges in reproducibility, problems associated with differentiating between strong coupling and other effects, and the lack of a clear theoretical model to describe the reported effects. Concerning the question of differentiating between strong coupling and other possible mechanisms when examining experimental data, here, we show how cognitive bias can lead us to place undue emphasis on a given interpretation of unsystematic experimental data. We hope that this Viewpoint will, where appropriate, help readers to plan strong coupling experiments more carefully and evaluate the significance of the data obtained from them.
