Tsunamigenic fault structures revealed in the 2024 Noto earthquake (M7.6) rupture area.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
On January 1, 2024, a large-magnitude (M7.6) reverse-fault earthquake struck the Noto Peninsula, Japan, generating a tsunami that caused extensive coastal damage. The source fault, inferred from aftershock distributions by the Japan Meteorological Agency, extends approximately 150 km from the peninsula’s western coast to the northeastern offshore region. High-resolution pre-stack depth migrated seismic profiles reveal a large deformation zone (LDZ) within the 2024 coseismic rupture area. This ~ 2.5–3.8 km wide and ~ 30 km long LDZ consists of steeply southeast-dipping reverse faults (~ 50°–75°), which may represent shallow extensions of the deeper seismogenic listric fault, as well as branching faults suggestive of a local strike-slip component. Numerical simulations of tsunami generation suggest that a coseismic slip of 6–7 m along the reverse fault, followed by reactivation of the LDZ, could have produced up to 3 m of seafloor uplift and triggered subsequent tsunamis. In addition, we identified northwest-dipping reverse faults (~ 50°–55°) that appear to be active but exhibited little coseismic slip during the 2024 event. Our findings provide the first detailed characterization of tsunamigenic fault structures within the rupture area of the 2024 Noto earthquake.
