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

We investigate compound drops composed of two immiscible nonvolatile partially wetting liquids that slide down an inclined homogeneous smooth solid substrate based on a mesoscopic hydrodynamic two-layer model in full-curvature formulation. First, we briefly investigate the reference case of a liquid drop that stationarily slides on a liquid layer representing an adaptive substrate. Subsequently, we focus on sliding compound drops employing a parameter study to identify qualitative transitions between different drop configurations and time-periodic behavior as well as the underlying bifurcation structure. After analyzing the dependence of drop velocities and dynamic Young and Neumann angles on driving force, also the influence of the ratios of drop volumes and viscosities is briefly considered. An accompanying discussion of the lateral dissipation profile is used to explain the encountered dependence of drop velocity on their configuration. Finally, we consider the time-periodic fusion-overtaking-splitting behavior found outside the existence range of the stationary sliding compound drops.
