Stylometry and forensic science: A literature review.
Review in Forensic science international. Synergy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 article focuses on a careful description of literature on stylometry and on its potential use in forensic science. The state of the art of stylometry is summarized to illustrate the history and the scientific foundation of this discipline. However, the study conducted reveals that there are still some key unresolved aspects that require a response from the academic world. The paper introduces the readers to those issues that need to be tackled for stylometry to be accepted as a forensic discipline. In particular, a coherent probabilistic procedure to assess the probative value of the results obtained through this methodology is largely absent. This gap should be filled properly by applying criteria recommended by international organizations such as the European Network of Forensic Science Institutes. Solutions do exist and will allow a better integration of stylometry in forensic science, favouring the acceptance of this scientific technical method in judicial proceedings.
