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

Upper-plate aftershocks following megathrust earthquakes are particularly dangerous as they may occur close to densely populated regions. Aftershock numbers decay with time, imposing a time-dependent seismic hazard that is assessed with statistical forecast models. While coseismic static stress transfer cannot explain this time-dependency, transient postseismic deformation due to afterslip, viscoelastic relaxation, and pore-pressure diffusion are potential candidates. Here we demonstrate which postseismic process is the key driver of the upper-plate aftershocks pattern following the 2014 M
