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

Phenylhydrazone formation from isatin is used to examine the effects on the reaction rate of (i) electrospray emitter distance from the mass spectrometer (MS) inlet, (ii) emitter tip diameter, and (iii) presence of surfactant. Reaction rates are characterized through measurement of conversion ratios. It is found that there is an increase in the conversion ratio as (i) the electrospray source is moved further from the inlet of the mass spectrometer, (ii) smaller sprayer diameters are used, and (iii) when surfactants are present. Each of these experimental operations is associated with an increase in reaction rate and with a decrease in average droplet sizes. The size measurements are made using super resolution microscopy from the "splash" on a collector surface produced by a fluorescent marker sprayed using conditions similar to those used for the reaction mixture. This measurement showed that droplets undergo significant evaporation as a function of distance of flight, thereby increasing their surface to volume ratios. Similarly, the effect of nanoelectrospray emitter size on conversion ratio is also found to be associated with changes in droplet size for which a 4 to 10 times increase in reaction rate is seen using tip diameters ranging from 20 μm down to 1 μm. Finally, the effects of surfactants in producing smaller droplets with corresponding large increases in reaction rate are demonstrated by splash microscopy. These findings point to reaction acceleration being strongly associated with reactions at the surfaces of microdroplets.
