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

High-quality regional streamflow datasets are necessary to support local water resources planning and management in the Great Lakes basin. However, the region's observed streamflow records are limited by the availability of surface water gauges, which go in and out of service over time. In this paper, we present a continuous reconstruction of daily streamflow from 1951-2013 at 656 gauged locations throughout the Great Lakes basin. This dataset is created using a novel regional Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model that integrates local climate data, physical catchment characteristics, and runoff observations from nearby gauged sites. We also use this model to estimate monthly runoff into Lakes Superior, Michigan-Huron, St. Clair, Erie, and Ontario. The daily reconstruction product will equip water managers with information to support local water resources analyses, while the monthly runoff product can help improve historical water balance estimation across the Great Lakes and provide critical context for lake level shifts under a changing climate.
