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 Novel Dhouib Matrix Minimum Spanning Tree Problem (DM-MSTP) method is used to illustrate a topological relationship between all Tunisian financial market for 2024. The results reveal a clear hierarchical organization with the financial sector playing a central bridging role, particularly through banks and financial services, which connect consumer-oriented and real-economy sectors. A two-cluster configuration highlights a tightly integrated group of cyclical sectors basic materials, construction and building materials, and industry characterized by strong co-movements and limited diversification potential. Extending the analysis to a three-cluster framework provides finer granularity, separating consumer and service sectors, real-economy production sectors, and financial intermediaries into distinct groups. These partitioning underscores differential channels of shock transmission, with faster contagion within cyclical sectors and more buffered dynamics among diversified service sectors.
