Assessing the impact of hard data patterns on Bayesian Maximum Entropy: a simulation study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study empirically tested the robustness of Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) in predicting spatiotemporal data, with an emphasis on skewness, sample size, and spatial dependency level. Simulated data, both Gaussian and non-Gaussian, were generated using the unconditional sequential simulation method, with sample sizes ranging from 100 to 500 at the interval length of 50 and varying skewness (0, 1, 3, 6 and 9) and spatial dependency levels (weak, moderate, and strong). Findings revealed sample size variations and spatial dependence levels did not significantly influence BME prediction's Mean Square Error (MSE) and bias. While skewness significantly impacted MSE (p-value < 0.001), bias remained unaffected. Moreover, skewness and spatial dependence interactions affected both MSE and bias. Despite this, BME proved robust to sample size and skewness, demonstrating a negligible MSE on the graphical plot (heatmap).
