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 African large low shearwave-velocity province (LLSVP) advected plumes manifest as large igneous provinces (LIPs) during Pangea breakup. The existence of such basal mantle structures during earlier supercontinents is unknown. Here we analyze samples from China and Brazil to demonstrate with literature data a series of seven LIPs of supercontinent Rodinia from 940-720 million years ago. Multi-proxy reconstruction results in a coherent ring of LIPs comparable with the size of Rodinia that resembles the product of an ancient LLSVP whose edges advected LIP-producing plumes. Oceanic lithosphere recycling following supercontinental assembly is evident in Nd isotopes as evolving LIP-sources. There is a same secular variational pattern of LIP sources with a replenished depleted component advected by plumes as well as a similar manner yet contrasting paleogeographic configurations corresponding to supercontinental breakup between Rodinian and Pangean LLSVPs. This evolving pattern of LLSVPs suggests their partial regeneration (replenishment and migration) between supercontinents.
