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

Collective behavior is among the most fascinating complex dynamics in coupled networks with applications in various fields. Recent works have shown that higher-order interactions widely exist in complex systems. Both positive couplings among nodes, as the majority of studies have assumed, and negative couplings are very common in real-world systems, like physiological networks. Positive coupling (excitatory coupling) promotes synchronization and drives excitatory synaptic transmission between neurons. Meanwhile, negative coupling (inhibitory coupling) inhibits synchronization and sustains inhibitory synaptic transmission between neurons. Since high-order coupling patterns and different coupling patterns strongly affect the synchronous performance of complex systems, this article develops a globally coupled higher-order oscillatory system model that incorporates both positive and negative couplings. It is shown that, in the case of positive couplings, a second-order interaction has a negligible impact on the synchronization capability of a network within a certain range. In contrast, a higher-order network with purely negative couplings exhibits asynchronous states for any values of the second-order interactions. However, the synchronous region gradually shrinks with the increase of the negative coupling in the case of mixed couplings. This indicates a prominent role of coupling patterns on the onset of globally higher-order network synchronization.
