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

Diazomethane is a highly explosive and toxic gas routinely employed for the quantitative and clean derivatization of phenols. We investigated the commercially available trimethylsilyldiazomethane in the presence of diisopropylethylamine as a safe, non-explosive and less-toxic alternative using six phenolic polychlorinated biphenyls as model analytes and fluoro-tagged analogues as internal standards. We compared yields and derivatization times of each method employing a liver microsomal extract as a real matrix. Steric hindrance and electronic properties of the analytes were also investigated. The alternative method afforded equal to higher derivatization yields with increased reaction times, up to 100 min, while explosion and toxic exposure risks were minimized and cost efficiency was increased above 25%. These findings demonstrate that non-explosive trimethylsilyl diazomethane produces comparable derivatization results to the dangerous diazomethane under the conditions studied.
