1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Recent laboratory tests and large-scale observations have revealed the complex interplays between aseismic and seismic deformation, as well as the progressive localization of the rock failure process. To investigate these processes, we conducted triaxial tests that combined distributed strain sensing (DSS) with acoustic emission (AE) sensors. Progressive strain localization was detected by DSS at 80% of the peak stress but did not produce measurable AEs. Closer to the peak stress, regions exhibiting strain localizations began to show clusters of AEs. This reveals that DSS measurements are more informative during the preparatory stage of brittle rock failure. The frequency-magnitude distribution of the AEs showed an inverse correlation with the volumetric deformation rate a few seconds preceding catastrophic failure. Our results are consistent with recent large-scale observations and offer crucial insights into progressive failure assessment.
