Preventing Diffusion of Moral Responsibility in Big Team Science: Taking an Ecosystem Approach.
Article in The Hastings Center report. 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
Long-standing frameworks for the ethics of biomedical research are being challenged on multiple fronts by seismic shifts in the way science is practiced. One such shift, which is the focus of "Filling the Network Gap in Research Ethics: Analyzing Ethical Issues at Scale in Big Team Science," by Susan Wolf and colleagues in this issue of the Hastings Center Report, is the evolution of biomedical research toward very large scientific teams. The authors seek to fill a gap in research ethics frameworks that arises with the conduct of big team science, at the mesolevel of research networks. However, I suggest ways that their focus on the ethical issues of traditional science such as authorship and data sharing and their confining of the concept of big teams to multiple but similarly constituted groups at research labs or institutions limit the scope of ethical inquiry in ways that potentially diminish the future utility of their analysis.
