Special issue on software citation, indexing, and discoverability.
Article in PeerJ. Computer science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Software plays a fundamental role in research as a tool, an output, or even as an object of study. This special issue on software citation, indexing, and discoverability brings together five papers examining different aspects of how the use of software is recorded and made available to others. It describes new work on datasets that enable large-scale analysis of the evolution of software usage and citation, that presents evidence of increased citation rates when software artifacts are released, that provides guidance for registries and repositories to support software citation and findability, and that shows there are still barriers to improving and formalising software citation and publication practice. As the use of software increases further, driven by modern research methods, addressing the barriers to software citation and discoverability will encourage greater sharing and reuse of software, in turn enabling research progress.
