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

Due to the widespread deployment of large-scale satellite constellations, Spatial Information Networks (SINs) exhibit increasingly high-order node and service coupling characteristics, rendering them vulnerable to node removal and cascading failures. Traditional graph-theoretic models fail to capture the inherent multi-node cooperative relationships within SINs, while conventional centrality metrics overlook service coupling features and cross-community propagation risks, leading to inaccurate key node identification. To address these issues, this paper proposes a key node mining method based on soft community partition and hypergraph interweaving degree. The method first constructs a hypernetwork to characterize the high-order associations among three types of services-communication, remote sensing, and navigation. Second, a probabilistic generative model, Hypergraph-MT, is introduced to detect overlapping communities and capture the multi-role attributes of satellites. Finally, the Interweaving Degree (IW) and its derived Bridge Score (IWBS) are defined to quantify node importance from two dimensions: load capacity and cross-community connectivity. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared with degree centrality and betweenness centrality, the proposed method increases the service interruption rate from 27.4% to 64.8% under a 5% removal ratio, and the service efficiency loss is elevated by more than 60%. In comparison with pure interweaving degree removal, IWBS triggers deeper cascading removal at a 30% removal ratio, reduces the removal cost by 8.9%, and improves the input-output ratio by 8.2% under high-intensity removal. Moreover, the algorithm exhibits linear scalability and strong robustness to parameter variations. The proposed method significantly enhances the accuracy and efficiency of key node identification in SINs, providing theoretical support for constellation deployment optimization and priority protection decision-making.
