The failure mechanism of the Baishi landslide in Beichuan County, Sichuan, China.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
The Baishi landslide was located in the western part of Beichuan County, Sichuan Province, China. The landslide experienced multiple minor collapses at the front part, accompanying with numerous tensile cracks. To comprehensively grasp the stability conditions and predict the moment of failure of the landslide, deformation monitoring of the landslide has been carried out from the moment that the landslide was reported until it failed. This study analyzed the different phases of landslide deformation and its failure mechanism through the analysis of monitoring data. The result showed that the failure manifests both the retrogressive and advancing features. The landslide was divided into several zones based on the spatial variation of the deformation characteristics. Moreover, the improved tangential angle criterion is applied to categorize the deformation phases of a landslide. Investigating the surface displacement vectors and vector angles of landslides plays a significant role for ascertaining the failure and sliding mechanism. The monitoring results revealed that the front part of the landslide played a key role in the stability of the landslide. Therefore, the monitoring data from this zone were crucial for predicting the moment of complete landslide failure.
