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

The 15 January 2022, Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha'apai volcanic eruption generated a tsunami that spread across the Pacific Ocean and prompted a tsunami advisory in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ). Concurrently, a severe weather warning was issued for ex-Tropical Cyclone Cody, passing east of NZ and producing heightened swells along the North Island coast. Numerous boats were significantly damaged or sunk in Tūtūkākā Marina, Northland, NZ. Mariners raised concerns over the perceived lack of tsunami warnings. We interviewed mariners in Tūtūkākā to understand their experiences on the night of 15 January 2022 and their needs and expectations of tsunami warnings. The complexity of the multi-hazard event made it difficult to assess and convey the severity of the expected tsunami. We found that mariners require information about expected wave height and arrival time, weather, and sea conditions to inform their anticipatory mitigation actions. This event shows the importance of multi-hazard risk assessments to produce effective warnings and action advice.
