A method of computing accurate 3D fields of a quadrupole mass filter and their use for prediction of filter behavior.

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
A method is described that enables the three-dimensional fields of a simple quadrupole mass filter (QMF) to be determined to a high accuracy. The technique produces accurate field values in the fringe field region as well as in the center of the filter. Using fields obtained typical filter performance is determined and shown to differ from that predicted when fringe fields are ignored. The computed performance shows features obtained experimentally and displays more complex variation with ion mass and other parameters than when fringe fields are ignored.
