Structural Analysis of Polyurethane Monomers by Pyrolysis GC TOFMS via Dopant-Assisted Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization.
Article in Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2019. 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
Polyurethane is one of the most widely used copolymers and is formed by the cross-linking of isocyanates and polyols. Its physical properties have a strong dependence on the monomer structures, making it very important to characterize the monomers in polyurethane. In this study, we developed a method to analyze unknown polyurethane samples using pyrolysis gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (Py-GC-TOFMS) with dopant-assisted atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (dAPCI). A set of standard polyurethane foams produced with several different monomers are analyzed by Py-GC-TOFMS. GC-dAPCI-TOFMS is a high-resolution, soft ionization method for GC-MS analysis that provides accurate mass information of GC separated molecules. The data obtained by this approach could effectively classify different monomers using principal component analysis (PCA), grouping polymers with the same monomers, and providing structural features significant to each monomer. Furthermore, characteristic compounds are identified using in-source collision-induced dissociation (CID) and CSI:FingerID analysis. In contrast, the same set of samples analyzed by Py-GC-electron ionization (EI)-MS could only partially separate some of the monomers. Graphical Abstract .
