On the limits of the intervention on complex systems guided by functional networks.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Complex networks, and functional networks in particular, have become a standard tool to understand the structure and dynamics of real-world complex systems. One usually hidden assumption is that the structure of the reconstructed functional networks encodes useful information to guide interventions on the physical layer, when the latter is not known. We here test this assumption using a minimal model, simulating a propagation process in a physical network, and guiding interventions using node properties observed in the corresponding functional representation. We show how this approach becomes less optimal the more complex the topology is; up to becoming marginally better than choosing nodes at random in the real case of the European air transport network.
