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

This work studies rollout design problems with a focus of suitable choices of rollout rate under the standard Type I and Type II error probabilities control framework. The main challenge of rollout design is that data is often observed in a lump-sum manner from a spatio-temporal point of view: (1) temporally, only the sum of data in a given sliding time window can be observed; (2) spatially, there are two subgroups for the data at each time step: control and treatment, but one can only observe the total values instead of individual values from each subgroup. We develop rollout tests of lump-sum data under both fixed-sample-size and sequential settings, subject to the constraints on Type I and Type II error probabilities. Numerical studies are conducted to validate our theoretical results.
